A loan of $1,125 helps to buy fertilizers and bags of manure.
Luisa's story
Luisa and her husband grow taro and support four children on the $35 per day yield from this food staple. However, this requires intensive farming, and their soil needs regular replenishment. As another planting season approaches, Luisa asks for a loan to buy fertilizer. She is confident that this will ensure a good harvest. A strong yield means more income, and she will use this to improve her house and support her children’s education.
