Hernan's story
Hernan is a dedicated farmer from Contadero, Nariño, with 38 years of experience. He has a three-hectare farm where he grows potatoes, which he fertilizes using natural fertilizers that promote production. Hernan stores his harvest in a small shed on the farm, but his production is increasing monthly, so he need to expand his storage to avoid risks associated with pests and sprouting.
Hernan lives with his wife and one of their three children in a house on the farm. His family plays a key role in the agricultural work, helping with daily tasks.
A loan of $4,974,484 COP allows Hernan to purchase materials to remodel and expand the shed where he stores his production. This improvement will reduce losses due to pests and ensure the proper preservation of his potato crops.
