Abraham is the facilitator of the Muungano B group. Abraham and his group joined One Acre Fund in the year 2011 and will re-enroll in the 2012 program.
Abraham takes care of six children at home. He joined One Acre Fund to improve food production and hence ensure food security for his family. In the recent 2011 season, Abraham had a very good maize yield, harvesting 7 bags on ½ an acre of land. Before joining One Acre Fund, Abraham was only able to harvest 3 bags of maize on ½ an acre of land.
With this loan, One Acre Fund will purchase fertilizer, seeds, and other important inputs to distribute to Abraham and his group during Kenya’s next planting season in February 2012. The distribution of farming inputs is part of One Acre Fund’s integrated agriculture package, which includes training, reliable input supply (such as fertilizer and seeds), credit and insurance.
With income from maize sales, Abraham will educate his children and save for the future.
In 2012, the members of Muungano B group will each plant maize plots of between ½ and 1 acre of land.
