Adding to basket
Erick has a fourth grade education. He is in a relationship; his partner carries out domestic duties. They have no children at present and live alone.
Erick works in agriculture. The hardest work is sowing corn and beans; every year he sows around 7,000 metres and from this he obtains his annual income. He also has small animals. In the previous harvest he achieved a good level of production, which served him for his personal consumption as well as to have a better income for his family. In his free time he carries out jobs as a construction labourer; his spouse and other friends join him on these jobs.
Erick will use the loan to prepare the land where he will sow his crops; he will also buy a variety of inputs such as sulphate and crop additives, which he will have ready for the sowing this winter. Additionally, he will buy a little feed for his small animals.
Erick dreams of having more income from the earnings from his work, and of improving the condition of his house.
