Alba Rosa's story

This client is from the Cruz de Apante region and has been a producer for a number of years, working with her husband who handles the agricultural business, since they are also small-scale livestock farmers, having the two businesses, that is, crop and livestock farming. The land where she plants her crops was an inheritance from her parents who utilized the land for the same purpose, as they were taught by their ancestors. Thus they are seeking financing during each cycle for help with production costs. In this way they have improved their living conditions and standard.

Her nuclear family consists of three children one of whom has a child, who shares the same room. Said work is carried out by the family, her children and her husband. Only when the work is more demanding do they turn to non-family labor, and specifically men based on the type of activity.
