A loan helped to buy two heifers and feed.


Alvaro Adrian's story

Álvaro is a man of the country who has innumerable qualities that set him apart from other farmers in the area. Chief among these are his desire for self-improvement and his commitment to his family.

He works ceaselessly in his agricultural work consisting of planting potato seeds, and raising dairy cattle and small animals. Because of this work he lives a life with dignity.

In the last months Álvaro has focused on raising dairy cattle. He has vast experience in this job, as his father taught him how to care for cows so that they generate a good quantity of milk.

His dream is to have a productive dairy herd. He believes that with the financial help provided him by Banco Visionfund Ecuador he will achieve this dream in the future.

Currently, with this loan he is receiving, Álvaro will buy two heifers and feed. This will allow him to have healthy and productive cattle.
