For María being a woman is not a impediment to working in the fields. She is dedicated to growing corn and beans with the help of her son. She is a woman passionate about the field and green groves of trees and is delighted to see the sun at five in the morning from her field. She is a farmer very well known in her area for the effort and dedication she puts into her crops.
María has come to MiCrédito together with Kiva to request a loan to purchase compost, fertilizers, micronutrient foliar treatment and minerals which will help her plant her crops well and prevent pests from damaging the harvest.
In the near future María hopes to purchase two parcels of land and diversify her crops.
