Manuel is 63 years old, his wife died years ago and he has an adult son. They live in the San Placido parish of the Portoviejo canton, an agricultural area par excellence of hard-working people dedicated to field work and animal husbandry.
He is a very hard-working man who tries to earn an income and with that get ahead despite his advanced age.
He works in agriculture, an activity that he learned at a very young age and this helps him get ahead. He has several hectares with cocoa and banana, crops that he hopes to improve genetically and thus improve the quality of his production, he uses organic fertilizers and insecticides with which he tries to protect the environment and have very good harvests.
This credit is to buy organic fertilizers and insecticides to improve his crop.
