Wagner Onofre's story
Wagner Onofre is 43 years old, is in a civil union and has an adult son. His partner is a housewife. They live in the Ricaurte parish of the Chone canton, an agricultural place par excellence of hard-working people dedicated to farm work and animal husbandry.
He is a very hard-working man who looks for a way to earn his resources and with them to support his family. Although life in the countryside is very hard due to the lack of resources, he tries to make sure they have a decent life. He has a business raising and fattening pigs. He has some breeding sows that he hopes to genetically inseminate. Once the pigs are born, he keeps them until they have an adequate weight and sells them to merchants who come to the place to buy.
This loan is to buy embryos, as well as food and medicine for the pigs.
