Adelaida is an enterprising and hardworking woman, who at 50 years old continues to work with all her energy for the future of her family, along with her husband, they work in the fields. One of their activities is to carefully select the seeds upon which their production will depend as they produce only native potatoes, as their land is located in a place where no other products can be grown. It is important that they sell their potatoes to agri-food businesses that adequately compensate their efforts. Adelaida and her husband also sell some animals that they raise on their land. Together they have raised 6 marvelous children, 4 of whom are grown with their own families, leaving the two youngest children, ages 13 and 11. Adelaida asks for a loan that will be invested in the purchase of organic and chemical fertilizer in order to improve their potato production.

Desarrolla su agricultura. Entrepreneur: Adelaida Location: Huancayo, Peru Adelaida y su esposo invirtieron el crédito en la compra de sacos de abono e insecticidas para la siembra de papa. Con ello, tuvo la seguridad de que obtendría una buena cosecha mejor que otras temporadas, eso favoreció en su economía ya que la inversión no fue mucha debido al bajo precio del abono y de los insecticidas. Ella considera que el haber accedido un crédito por parte de Microfinanzas PRISMA fue de mucha ayuda para su agricultura, y es por ello que esta contenta y agradecida con todos ustedes por haberle brindado el préstamo y de esa manera pudo desarrollar su trabajo. Por ahora se dedicará a la agricultura y mas adelante adquirir una movilidad para transportar sus cosechas entre ellas también las verduras a la cuidad para su comercio.
