Sylvend's story

Sylvend K. is a sugar cane farmer. He is 46 years old, married and has 5 children between the ages of 1 and 16 years. He has a primary education, and 3 of his children attend school.

Sylvend is going to use his loan for the work of growing sugar cane and paying the labor costs. His strategy for the growth of his business is to modernize the sugar cane plantation and expand the farming workforce in order to have a good harvest. He would like to increase the sugar cane harvest as much as possible and get together with the sugar cane farmers in order to seek out other sugar cane markets.

For his family and his life, Sylvend would like to assure the well-being of his family, educate his children by paying their educational fees, save to send the children to school and live in a comfortable place.
