A loan helped to purchase fertilizers, herbicides and fungicides, and pay labor costs for his crops.


Wilmer Jonathan's story

He lives with his spouse and 5 children in the community of Las Vegas. He is a very hardworking, honest and responsible person and is very well-known in the zone.

His source of income comes from agriculture, having corn and plantains, currently having 4 manzanas of corn, 1 manzana of coffee, and 1 manzana of plantains, with over 24 years of experience doing these activities.

He is asking for the loan to purchase fertilizers, herbicides and fungicides, and pay labor costs to weed the farm and collect the harvest.

It is worth mentioning that, apart from farming, he works raising pigs and in sales (selling medicine and an inventory of clothing and shoes) as additional income.

His dream is to be able to weed, fertilize, apply foliar fertilizers, and collect the harvests, and to be able to generate good income for his family.

This loan is special because:

It has a below-market interest rate and is repaid at harvest, when farmers can more easily repay.
