My name is Sylvester Wakuteka, I live in Mungule area of Chibombo district of Central province of Zambia. Am married 3 three children. I went to Liteta Primary School and completed my secondary school at Chibombo boarding school.
Chibombo is a district rich in fertile land for growing any crops. Having known that for years, that prompted me to venture into farming of tomatoes, onions, maize and a variety of vegetable. At first I thought maybe it was for consumption only and yet it was also a source of revenue. After started realizing that I was making good income for myself, I gathered the courage of working hard and begin to grow more crops for sale, the time I did realize that farming was good and important that made overcome hardship as I was already sponsoring myself at college in the school of natural resources or Agriculture.
Our culture is unique and most people live their life through farming and raring livestock.
I wish my children to become graduates when the grow up and some to be medical doctors and others Accountants or Lawyers.
Mainly am involved in the farming business, I grow maize, cassava, tomatoes, a different variety of crops, sweet potatoes, cucumbers and carrots. These are the major crops I provide for sale having a good harvest each every farming season in Chibombo district. The farming produce or goods I sale are very important and very useful because they are for consumption to make human being have a good health body. I choose this sector of business because it is the source of food security in the family and the country at large.
Mainly my typical cost is on fertilizer , one bag of fertilizer is K 1500.00 * 5 = 75000
maize seed for planting per bag is K750.00*20= K15000
Total K 90,000.00
The profits made are used to pay me for school fees, my children school fees and for reinvestments for expansion of my farming projects which is mainly the source of income.
Due to very good rainfall pattern, I need the fund to buy the vegetable seeds to compliment the maize crop that is growing steadily in the farm land. This I project a good harvest for home consumption and for sale to generate more money to grow the business project. The funds will be used to support my family feed three times a day and also providing the community with fresh vegetables to buy and maize crop for mealie meal.
I need vegetable seeds & gardening tools
