A loan helped to purchase fertilizers to apply them to his corn crop and guarantee a good harvest.


Rigoberto De Jesus's story

Rigoberto is 61 years old, studied up to the seventh grade in school, is single, and his children no longer depend on him.

Rigoberto works in agriculture, specifically planting corn, and has over 20 years of experience in this labor. The land he plants is near his house and his work schedule is from 5:00 am to 12:00 noon. In addition, he works on waterways.

He needs the loan to purchase fertilizers to apply them to his corn crop and guarantee a good harvest.

Rigoberto dreams of increasing his agricultural yield and of being able to get more abundant harvests.
