Adding to basket
Rosa is 37 years old. She is married and attended school until the 6th grade. She has seven children. Five of them are still minors and live with her. The other two are grown and in relationships. Her husband works loading cargo onto trucks.
For approximately ten years Rosa has worked in agriculture, a job she learned from her husband. She is always attentive to her crops, and pays laborers to help her collect the harvest.
Rosa needs a loan to buy fertilizers to provide maintenance to her crops in order to have an abundant harvest. In the future Rosa hopes that her production of staple grains increases, as it is the basis for feeding her children and earning income when she sells part of the harvest.
