A loan helped to purchase agricultural inputs.


Thomas's story

Thomas is a 33 year-old man, married and the father of 3 children aged 3 to 7. They all attend school.

He has been in agriculture for over 10 years already and grows corn, [potatoes] and peanuts in a village in his country. His business is going well, but he lacks good capital to grow more and have good harvests.

He is therefore seeking this loan to purchase fertilizer, seeds and insecticide for his field. He will then be able to harvest and sell more in order to have more profits and better care for his family.
