A loan helped to purchase fertilizer and pay for labor.


Rigoberto's story

Rigoberto is 59 years old and married. He has three children. He lives with his family in the town of Choloma, department of Cortes.

Rigoberto has been working as a farmer for 41 years, growing high-quality basic grains. He has always been engaged in farming.

Rigoberto grows his crops on the land at his house. He sells his produce at the local market and by order. He wants to purchase fertilizer and pay for labor.

Rigoberto is applying for a loan from this institution in the amount of 21,000.00 Lempiras. Rigoberto hopes that the maintenance he does on his plots of land will enable him to get better harvests. His dream is to improve his family's quality of life.
