A loan helped to purchase organic soil amendments, stakes, and wire, and to pay labor costs to maintain the crop.


Cristian Bolívar's story

Cristian is 40 years old and lives with his family in the parish of Cahuasquí, a very productive place due to the fertility of its soil.

Cristian works in agriculture. He currently has a crop of passion fruit. He has a lot of experience as his father was who taught him to work the land and seek his financial resources in an honest way.

Cristian asks for a loan to purchase organic soil amendments, stakes, and wire, and to pay labor costs to maintain the crop as the season is dry and requires more care so that the product is of quality and to be able to sell it at a good price in the market.

Cristian is very grateful for the help and trust offered to him as his crops are his primary source of income.
