What do you plan to do with the cash transfer?
I am a retired civil servant and I currently depends on farming for survival. I have the passion to do agribusiness but due to the drought in our area it is impossible. However,I have decided to go to irrigation along the Galana river but the only challenge is funds. I will use $300 to lease one acre and buy farm inputs to do irrigation at Galana river. The produce will be for consumption and for business. I intend to make approximately $50 per month as profit. I will also use $240 to buy three goats as an investment. This is also away of get sustainable income for the family.
What is the happiest part of your day?
Every parent wishes to find their family living in harmony and have cohesion. I have been advocating for unit in my family and for over ten years now my family is united and this brings happiness in my life.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
Reliable source of income is the challenge I am facing in life. I do subsistence farming for food but due to the climate change we have been under drought for the past three years. So we now depends on the support from children.
