Santiago is 33 years old. He is an honest and hard-working man from El Capulí sector. He lives in a humble home made of adobe owned by his mother. He has two children whom he supports economically for their sustenance and education. Santiago has only a primary education. His life has always been related to agricultural work.
Eight years ago, he began to farm on his own account. Santiago is applying for his third loan with Banco Vision Fund Ecuador. He needs the loan to pay for the purchase of agricultural supplies needed for the good development and production of the crop. To give it good care, he keeps the planting free of disease and pests that can damage the plants.
Santiago has plans to continue expanding the area of his planting in order to generate work for the laborers of the sector.
