Adding to basket
Jose, age 52, lives with his family in his own house. He devotes himself to agriculture, and he grows corn. He has ten years of experience in this line of work, and that is why he manages to get good harvests. He sells his products in the outlying areas to where he lives. He manages to get ahead with his earnings.
He is requesting a loan to buy agricultural supplies to prepare two ‘manzanas’ [a manzana is a land measurement unit equivalent to 7000 square meters] of land. This way he will continue with his crops in order to be able to improve the family’s income.
