A loan helped to buy seeds, compost, work tools, and a heifer.


Juan Rafael's story

Juan, 31, is a humble corn farmer who has been planting corn for three years on land inherited from his mother after her death. His mother worked with Banco Visionfund to support her financial situation and Juan is now doing so because, like his mother, he wants to be a good organic farmer and succeed with his agricultural activity. Juan is looking to expand his crops to other pastures in addition to starting to raise dairy cattle.

For this reason, he is requesting a loan to buy seeds, compost, work tools, and a cow. He hopes to improve his lifestyle and, in the future, have a large and happy family.
