Moussa N°1 has 8 children, of whom 5 are in school. He has raised oxen and grown vegetables for more than 20 years in a district on the outskirts of the city. He has much experience in this field. He has participated in several training courses on husbandry and vegetable farming. He is on his 9th loan cycle with YIKRI and has repaid his previous loans without difficulty, thanks to which, he was able to drill his off-season fields. He has asked for a new loan to buy 3 oxen, vitamins, 2 hectares of land, and grilling to fence his fields in order to increase his yield. He plans to reinvest his profits in his husbandry and grow his family's savings.
