Elisa, 40 years old, is the mother of a minor with whom she lives in the village of La Cordillera Andina, Chirinos, San Ignacio, a place where she works growing coffee. This she sells to a cooperative in Jaén.
This is the first loan that Elisa requests from Norandino, which she will use to purchase organic soil amendments and pay laborers to weed the coffee plants.
