What do you plan to do with the cash transfer?
Receiving this money will help me to buy six bags of fertilizer for my farm. The six bags of fertilizer will cost me $360. This will help me to have sufficient food the next harvest season because I can be able to harvest twelve bags.
What is the happiest part of your day?
In the month of August I was happy because I had sold some tomatoes that I had plant in my vegetable garden. I made $10 which made it easy for me to buy groceries such as body lotion, cooking oil.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The challenge that I am currently facing is a financial challenge. I rely on subsistence farming to provide food for my family but because of lack of money it is hard for me to buy fertilizer for my three acre farm. To increase the farm produce we need to apply six bags of fertilizer which can cost me $360.
