A loan helped to purchase seed and supplies for bean crops.


Esther Magdalena's story

Esther Magdalena is 19 years old. She is single and lives with her mother, who is her highest priority.

She wants the loan for the purchase of seed, fertilizers, manure and supplies necessary for the planting, assistance and maintenance of her bean crops in order to obtain a grain of the best quality and with the highest possible production.

She hopes that this investment will provide her family with a better quality of life and greater economic stability. She hopes that she can continue to grow as a person and as a micro-entrepreneur.

It is the first loan that she has received from FUDECOSUR. She has not had other loans in state banks before, but FUDECOSUR has provided the loan with greater facilities and a much lower interest rate.

Translated from Spanish by Kiva volunteer Maria Pelaez.


This loan is special because:

It is structured so that farmers' repayment schedules align with their cash flows.
