Roberto Osmin's story
Roberto, age 54, attended school up to second grade. He is in a relationship and his spouse is a housewife. His children no longer depend upon him.
Roberto works in agriculture - specifically, he grows pineapple and vegetables. He has more than 11 years of experience in this work, which he learned from his father. He travels one kilometer from his house to the land that he farms, and he works every day day starting at 6:00 in the morning.
He will use the loan to buy seeds and pesticides for his crops of vegetables. Also he will pay to maintain his crop of pineapple.
Roberto dreams of buying land with irrigation to expand his production.
