Fatima is married. She makes a living growing coffee and basic grains (corn and beans).
She feels very grateful and satisfied for the support provided with the loans, since she was able to provide support for her crops, which gave her better yield at the harvest.
She is requesting a loan in order to provide maintenance for 3.5 "manzanas" [about 6 acres] of coffee crops. The loan will be invested in the purchase of fertilizers to contribute nitrogen to the plants, and to purchase supplies for the leaves in order to guarantee a good yield at the harvest.
