    Hello guys, thank you for your continued support. I really appreciate your contribution. I am going to develop a fishpond for tilapia fish farming. The project costing areas include; excavation of the dam, purchase of damliner, purchase of wire mesh for fencing and labour payment. I already have some cash but I needed more to meet the cost of the project. These funds will be of great help.

    Thank you for funding my project. I have been rearing tilapia fish for sale. Currently I have a dam that accommodate a stock of 1500 fish. I would like to have another dam to increase the stock capacity to about 5000 fish. I need cash to procure the damliner (HDPE) for the dam as well as labour cost for excavation and fencing. I already has some money from my savings but it's not enough for the project and that's why I am trying to raise more funds for the project

    My fish and chicken rearing projects are going on well. The hen's have started laying eggs now, which am selling to generate income. I will harvest the fish some time next year.

    I got hospitalised after a road accident, leading to temporary financial instability. I look forward to clearing the overdue funds this month (October). I apologise for the delay.

    I am currently rearing Tilapia fish for sale at maturity and chicken for sale of eggs. Three months ago I stocked the pond with 1000 fingerlings and are progressing very well. My aim currently is to add another 1000 fingerlings to increase the stock. This will ensure that I can harvest mature fish twice; the first batch in the next four months and another three months later. This will go a long way in boosting the project profits. Thank you for the support.

    Thank you Zidisha family members for the continued support. The fund was of great help in purchasing feeds for my fish and chicken rearing projects. The two projects are progressing very well.

    I am grateful to the Zidisha family for the continued support of my farming projects. The fish farming is progressing well with the fingerlings 2 months old now. The chicks are as well growing. I used my last funds to supplement the purchase of feeds for the fish and chicks.

    I am rearing poultry and fish farming in a dam. I used the funds from the previous loan to supplement the purchase of poultry feeds. The chickens are growing well but have not yet started laying eggs. My fishing is also doing well, I recently stocked the dam with fingerlings, which are now two months old.

    I used the loan amount to top up for purchase of farm chemicals.
