Was born in the year 1992 in Nakuru in a village known mzee wanyama.its here that I was raised up and got my education upto form four level after a lot of struggle due to financial problems.in the year 2012 I joined University of eldoret and pursued a degree in General Agriculture up to 2016.
Since I was young I loved agriculture and its one of my hobbies.
In the year 2017 I joined Elimika Group as an extension officer and few months later I thought and came up with an ideaof becoming a seed multiplier.
I leased a land,approached KALRO and they approved my idea.I purchased new improved shangii potatoes variety worthy kshs30000($300) that I now multiply and supply to farmers.Am ready for my second season.
I love associating with youths.
The business started in May 2017 Where I approached KALRO and got new variety of potatoes know as Super shangii,I leased an acre of land and planted the seeds.
The aim was to multiply the seed and sell to locals in molo and kuresoi region
I have done first season and was able to provide seeds to 53farmers.
In the season am ready to set by End of November am targeting 500farmers.
One90kg bag I sell at kshs 3000($30).
I will lease another land that will help me multiply more super shangii seeds so as to be able to serve many farmers who have recently paid trust on me.clean potatoes seeds are on high demand and am aiming to multiply as many tonnes as I can.
