"My life is currently different. Our tea farm is currently well attended to since we afforded the much needed fertilizer that will boost the yield. We have assurance that we will have a good harvest this time. Our economic status will really improve and we are happy about this. Earlier, we could not afford the fertilizer since it is quite expensive; as a result, we would have little yield that would give us little earnings. Things have now changed and we are optimistic."
