Adding to basket
The woman in the photo is called Méline. She is separated and looks after her three children alone. She also takes care of her father. She has been in the pig breeding business for five years. She fattens the pigs to sell. She uses the profits to cover the family's expenses.
Méline is seeking a loan to buy two piglets and 400 kg of feed. The pigs will be fattened up and then sold to the butcher at the big market. She will do her best to save the profits to put towards building her own house in the future.
