My name is Maryaman Traore. I was born in Nasso, a village 15 km south of Bobo Dioulasso. I was born in a polygamous household, and I am likewise one of my husband's multiple wives. Mother of three children, one girl and two boys, I work hard to support my family. Currently I have a 2-hectare plot of land in the village where I live, and it is thanks to this that I am able to support myself and my children.
I would like to exhort you to finance my activities, consisting of gardening. Nowadays, many people are passionate about gardening. Fortunately, Burkina Faso currently represents a huge market in this area. I grow several varieties of plants. If the maintenance of these plants during the rainy season does not pose enough problems, the dry season is a time of hard work for us. The real problem in the dry season is the reduction of the market. Gardening is a profession like any other and allows these practitioners to support their families and educate their children, and resolve quite a crucial problem. Like any profession, challenges abound. Indeed the seeds are difficult because you have to import them from neighboring countries and it is very expensive.
For this second loan which I would like you at my disposal, I intend to inject it in the purchase of high-quality pump water to lower my costs to 30%. Thank you honorable Zidisha lenders and especially long life to this humble institution.
Je me nomme Traore Maryaman, je suis née a Nasso, village située a 15 km de la ville de Bobo Dioulasso. Issue de famille polygame, je suis aussi marie sous le régime polygame. Mère de 3 enfants dont une fille, je suis une mère qui est dégourdit. Actuellement je possède un champ de 2 hectares dans le village ou je réside et grâce a cette activité je parviens a m'occuper de moi et mes enfants.
Je voudrais par ce présent vous exhorter a financer mon activité qui consiste au jardinage. De nos jours, nombreuses sont les personnes passionnés par le jardinage. Heureusement, le Burkina Faso représente actuellement un énorme marché en la matière. Je cultive plusieurs variétés de plantes. Si pendant la saison pluvieuse l’entretien de ces plantes ne pose pas assez de problème, la saison sèche est un moment de dur labeur pour nous. Le vrai problème en saison sèche est la réduction du marché. Le jardinage est un métier comme un autre et permet à ces pratiquants de prendre en charge leur famille et de scolariser leurs enfants. Comme tout métier, les difficultés ne manquent pas. En effet les semences sont difficilement accessibles car il faut les importer des pays voisins et cela coûte excessivement cher.
