Brayan

Brayan lives in the municipality of Potosi, in the department of Nariño, in southwest Colombia, in the rural district of La Villa. He is a farmer who cultivates potatoes. He is 25 years old, single, and lives with his aunt. He has no children.

Brayan is requesting a loan for 6 million Colombian pesos to buy fertilizer to expand the productivity of his potato farm. He has more than 10 years of experience working in cold climate agriculture. He dreams of increasing his production and improving the quality of his harvest. This way, he can become an example in his rural community, demonstrating his knowledge in agriculture and everything he learned from his parents. He will also be able to sell his crops at a more competitive price, and expand the land that he has under production.
