A loan helped to purchase embryos to improve the pigs' breed.


Jose Gregorio's story

Jose Gregorio is 27 years old. He is single and lives with his parents in Agua Fría, Santa Ana Canton. The area is an excellent agricultural area of hard-working people dedicated to rural work and raising animals.

Jose is a very hard-working man who looks for ways to earn a living and improve his own life and his family's. He is making this happen with his efforts and hard work. He earns his living raising and fattening pigs. He has some breeding pigs and he hopes to genetically inseminate them so he can improve his pigs' breed. That is why he is requesting a loan, so he can improve the quality of his piglets and increase his production. This way, he will be able to keep going in spite of the difficulties of living in the country.

This loan is for the purchase of embryos to improve the breed of fattening pigs.
