Adding to basket
Teodora is from the Chuquisaca - Azurduy department, but lives in Cochabamba. She lives with her partner and has 3 dependent children. She works mainly in agriculture, and has her own fields. She cultivates half a hectare of yuca and pineapple crops, and also has half a hectare of young yuca. She also grows other foodstuffs such as rice, bananas, corn and other items for her family's consumption.
Her partner helps her to grow food for the family, which allows them to save money. In this way, she can improve her earnings in order to succeed in life and be able to provide a good example to her children. She has good references from her friends and neighbors, who know her to be hard-working, responsible, committed to her work, and able to manage her own accounts responsibly.
She needs support to be able to increase her yuca yield and maintain her pineapple crops, so that she can increase her earnings and help support her family. The produce will be sold through her union to intermediaries and yuca and pineapple sales representatives.
