Mrs. Mayra Gisela is 54 years old, is separated, and has 3 adult children. They live in the canton of Chone, an agricultural location with excellent and hardworking people dedicated to field work and animal raising.
Mayra is a hardworking woman who, along with her family, look to get ahead. And although life in the countryside is hard given the lack of resources, they try to get ahead thanks to their labor. They have a property which is dedicated to farming. They have various hectares of cacao plants which, with the help of the loan, hope to grow and improve the quality of their production. They use natural irrigation systems as well as fertilizers and organic insecticides to try and protect the environment.
This loan will be used to buy fertilizers and organic insecticides to improve production.
