Edgar is 52 years old and lives in La Punta, an agricultural region in southern Peru where life revolves around working the land. A father and lifelong farmer, he has learned that perseverance and careful crop care are the foundation for supporting his family and keeping production alive in his community.
With the financing he's requesting, Edgar plans to purchase machinery that will allow him to better nourish his plants and protect them from pests. This investment will not only improve the quality of his crops but will also make his daily work more efficient, ensuring more stable and sustainable production.
Supporting Edgar means supporting an experienced farmer who seeks to modernize his work and continue growing through his own efforts. With your help, he can strengthen his work and demonstrate that progress in the field also stems from dedication and the will to excel.
