A loan of $625 helps to acquire seeds and fertilizer to improve her farm production.

Mary's story
Mary is a hardworking smallholder farmer from Kapsowar who has spent the past few years building her farm through dedication and consistent effort. As a married woman, she plays an important role in supporting her household by ensuring there is enough food and a steady source of income throughout the year. Farming is her main livelihood, but limited capital has often made it difficult for her to access quality farm inputs at the right time, which affects both productivity and earnings.
Mary is seeking a loan to purchase modern farm inputs such as certified seeds, fertilizer, and farm chemicals. With these improved inputs, she will be able to increase both the quality and quantity of her farm output. A stronger harvest will help her earn more income, meet her family's needs, and strengthen their financial stability. She also plans to reinvest in her farm so she can maintain consistent production and improve results season after season.
