A loan helped to buy agricultural supplies to improve production of potatoes and beans.


Gabino's story

Gabino is a hardworking man, a farmer, and the father of two young children who attend school. The way that he found to provide for his family was through growing potatoes and broad beans. He learned this skill when he was a boy, thanks to his family. He managed to complete secondary school, but then had to leave his studies to work the land.

He wants to improve his production and to to that he needs to buy agricultural supplies such as mulch, preventatives against pests, and tools for the harvest. He needs capital to invest, and so he comes to Sembrar Sartawi IFD where he receives the advice and financing necessary to achieve it.
