Johana lives in the municipality of Potosí, Department of Nariño, in southwestern Colombia, in the La Villa neighborhood. She grows cold-weather crops (potatoes) in the municipality of Potosí, Nariño.
Johana is 39 years old and in a common-law marriage. She lives with her husband and young daughter. She is requesting a loan of $ 1,136,500 COP to buy fertilizer and fungicides to increase the productivity of her potato crops.
Johana has 24 years of experience growing potatoes. She dreams of improving the production and quality of her crops to serve as an example in her rural community by demonstrating her agricultural knowledge and what she has learned from her parents.
She will be able to sell her crops at a more competitive price and expand her planting plots.
