Erasmo Anibal's story

Erasmo attended school through 6th grade. He is in a relationship, and his partner does the household tasks. He has three children, who depend on him. He lives with his partner and his children.

Erasmo has been working in agriculture since he was 13 years old. He learned [the work] from his parents. He travels half a kilometer to arrive at the place where he has his plantings, and he works from 6:00 am to 12:00 noon. In addition, he works as a mason's assistant.

Erasmo needs the loan to buy fertilizers, seeds, and compost for his crops.

Erasmo dreams of obtaining a good harvest and giving the best to his family.
