I started this business 5 years ago after seeing how profitable and sustainable it is to me. I have been passionate because I earn good income. This time now crop production in Zambia is proving to be very good business and source of food security in Zambia. Most marketers buy from me on wholesale price and resale it on retail price. Currently demand is growing especially onions, tomatoes because this time it is in low supply hence I need more farming inputs to help me grow more crops for sale as this will help me to generate more money and expand the business.
