Daniel is 27 years old, single and lives with his mother in the municipality of Azacualpa, Department of Santa Barbara . For the last 5 years, he has bought and fattened pigs, and he learned these skills together with his family.
He is currently applying for a 26,000 HNL loan from ODEF, which he plans to invest in the purchase of a lot of pigs for fattening, concentrates, vitamins and worming treatments. He believes that the loan will help him increase production and improve his profits, which will help his family survive on the income from his business.
