A loan helped to buy soil amendments, minerals, leaf sprays, mulch, and pesticides.


Jose Nelson's story

José, age 51, lives with his family in an area that produces basic grains. Taking advantage of this opportunity for two decades, he has worked growing beans and corn in order to generate income and maintain his home.

Now he is requesting a Kiva loan from MiCrédito to buy soil amendments, minerals, leaf sprays, mulch, and pesticides. With these materials, he intends to have better return from his crops.

In the future, he intends to plant more and to acquire animals to transport production.
