About Me
my name is moses ndirangu huine of age 22. i am a young man, single, am the third born in a family of 5 children. i am a professional in plants disease/species research. i do farming business and mostly i farm cabbages in my large farm scale that is located in mirangini, plot No. 63. i grow cabbages for commercial purposes and i take them to large markets like nakuru town market and nairobi also when the harvest is great. i hire a lorry to do easy transport. i am always contented by my earnings (i manage to get maximum profit) after deducting all my expenses, that is: land preparation, cultivation, weeding, irrigation, pesticide, labourors transport and all others.
My Business
i am the most developed and well known cabbage farmer in mirangini location. am very okay with the business because it provides me with my daily needs and also enough savings. my products are in demand because i transport them to large markets like nakuru town and also to Nairobi when the demand is high. i also do local sales to my neighbors and retailers. my products are of high quality and also well grown with knowledge and treated against disease and hence high demand rises and most people prefer my products. just to estimate, one single harvest manage to give me around 50,000 ksh profit. i manage to plant the cabbages in 2 seasons a year, that is: January to April and finally July to November and December where the demand is very high in deed. i like cabbage farming because the crop doesent trake too long to mature, it takes only 3-4 months and its ready for market.
Loan Proposal
when i get this loan from zidisha, i will be very happy and lucky because i will now be able to transport my ready goods in shamba to the market for sale. i will transplant the seedlings immediate for December products which usually do very well and gives me high profit. it will also help me in preparation of the farm for the various plantation. i will highly appreciate for benefiting with you.
