Neptali is a 55-year-old man from the country. He has dedicated his life to agricultural work. He lives together with his partner and their five children, four of whom are minors and study hard. In their free time, they help their father with the field work, while his wife is a fundamental pillar in caring for their children and supporting him with the crops.
Currently, Neptali grows sugar cane, plantain, and naranjilla on his lands, which are relatively new, which is why he tries to work with few chemicals and care for the fertility of the land.
Thanks to his dedication he has been able to have stable production but protecting his crops from the weather conditions and pests requires constant investment to guarantee that his crops stay in good condition.
Due to this, Neptali needs a loan that will allow him to pay for the necessary care for his crops and in this way ensure production throughout the whole year.
His goals are to increase his financial stability, improve his family's quality of life, and some day provide them with a dignified and appropriate home, where they can all live with peace and comfort.
