"I normally cultivate maize on my farm without using the necessary/quality inputs so as to have a good harvest. This has always resulted in low maize production. Now, receiving this cash transfer will mean that I'll be able to purchase quality farm inputs among them hybrid seeds and fertilizer. This will go along way in ensuring that I get maximum production on my maize farm. Thank you so much GD."
