A loan helped to buy fertilizers for his crops.


Melvin Omar's story

The borrower is very well known in his community for his dedication to agriculture. He has been a responsible and very hardworking person. Through agriculture, he has been able to get his family ahead. He lives with his wife and children.

He wishes to invest the loan in purchase of fertilizers for his crop: quintals of urea fertilizer and quintals of 12-24-12 fertilizer. He needs these to be able to carry out his corn and bean harvests.

On the other hand, he dreams of being able to continue growing his crops with the excellent quality he has had. He also wants to be able to duplicate them to obtain greater profits and satisfy the customer demand.

He is totally grateful to Kiva because he has previously been able to carry out his projects with Kiva's help. He hopes it can continue to be that way.

This loan is special because:

It has a below-market interest rate and is repaid at harvest, when farmers can more easily repay.
