Jhon's story
Jhon is a young Indigenous farmer from Caldono, Cauca, with 11 years of experience in agriculture. He manages one hectare of land assigned to him by the Indigenous council, where he has planted over 5,000 coffee plants, complemented by a small variety of vegetables that diversify his production. Jhon cleans his land with an old weeder, which limits his reach and work efficiency, making it difficult to maintain his crops properly and affecting the overall yield of his production.
Jhon lives with his parents in a house they built near their crops. His parents are a crucial support for him in cultivating his fields, assisting with daily tasks.
A loan of $4,169,753 COP allows Jhon to purchase an automatic weeder, which will improve the cleaning of his land and optimize the maintenance of his crops.
