The Ankabenkélenkan 2. 4 group is made up of married women from the village of Fonfona, town of Koutiala (third administrative region of the Republic of Mali). They live in big traditional extended families with their children, husbands, parents- and sisters-in-law etc. Their average age is 45 and they have at least 6 children each. They mainly cultivate rice and peanuts.



Wishing to make their agricultural businesses more profitable, the members of the Ankabenkélenkan 2. 4 group decided to join the loan program of Soro Yiriwaso 5 years ago. After having correctly reimbursed their first four loans, they are now on their 5th rural loan.



This loan will be used to buy a sufficient quantity of peanut and rice seed, various minor materials, and entrants for their crops in the markets of Fonfona, M’pessoba, and Zansoni. After the rainy season, the harvests are stocked for a certain time so that they gain in value before being sold in the market of M’pessoba and the surrounding markets, retair and wholesale, for cash, to a clientele coming mostly from the big cities.



Each of the members of the Ankabenkélenkan 2. 4 group expects to make a profit of 70,000 F CFA which will be used to reimburse the loan and for current family expenses.

Le groupe Ankabenkélenkan 2. 4 est un regroupement de femmes mariées du village de Fonfona de la ville de Koutiala (troisième région administrative de la république du Mali). Elles vivent dans des grandes familles traditionnelles élargies avec leurs enfants, maris, beaux parents, belles sœurs etc. Elles ont en moyenne 45 ans et au moins 6 enfants.
Elles cultivent principalement du riz et de l’arachide.
Dans le souci de rentabiliser leurs exploitations agricoles, les membres du groupe Ankabenkélenkan 2. 4 ont décidé d’intégrer le programme crédit de Soro Yiriwaso depuis maintenant cinq ans. Après avoir correctement remboursés les quatre premiers prêts, elles sont à leur cinquième prêt de campagne.
Le prêt actuel sera utilisé pour acheter, une quantité suffisante de semence de riz d’arachide, des petits matériels et des intrants pour la culture, au marché de Fonfona, M’pessoba et Zansoni. Après l’hivernage, les récoltes sont stockées pendant un certain temps pour qu’elles aient de la valeur avant d’être vendues au marché de M’pessoba et dans les marchés environnants, en détail et en gros, au comptant à une clientèle venant généralement des grandes villes.
Les membres du groupe Ankabenkélenkan 2. 4 comptent réaliser chacune, après l’écoulement de leurs produits agricoles, un bénéfice de 70 000FCFA qui sera utilisé pour le remboursement du prêt et les dépenses courantes de la famille.

PREMIER ET DERNIER FEED BACK
 
Entrepreneur: Ankabenkélenkan 2. 4 Group
Location: Koutiala, Mali

Les femmes du groupe Ankabenkelekan 2.4 de l’association Ankabenkelekan 2 de Fonfona ont effectivement acheté des petits matériels agricoles, des intrants, des semences de riz et d’arachide d’une quantité suffisante nécessaire pour leur activité. Le prêt a permis de remédier aux problèmes de semence de petits matériels et d’intrants. Les semences ont bien germé et les champs ont été bien entretenus. Selon les femmes du groupe Ankabenkelekan 2.4 les perspectives sont bonnes car elles ont fait une bonne récolte de riz et d’arachide et attendent que les produits soient prisés pour faire une bonne vente.
