I invested most of my third transfer on livestock farming. For many years, I survived on purchased milk on a daily basis, something that was very expensive for me. Similarly, I struggled a lot ploughing my farm manually as people with oxen ploughed theirs comfortably and very fast. I admired a lot such kind of a lifestyle but poverty could not allow me own any. I thank Give Directly a lot for enabling me rise a step higher to a level of comfort. Like other people, I am able to plough using oxen and in good time which has translated to an increased level of output.

I spent my second transfer on purchasing food to sustain the family,an oxen that I will soon use to prepare my parcel of land and spent most of the money on purchasing a dairy cow with an intention of using the milk with the family members and selling some to get income.

The biggest difference in my daily life is that I use my time appropriately because I could ideal around after the casual jobs but nowdays I take the cattle to grass after work hence spent my time well.

I spent my first cash transfer on buying a cow 9,500 KES, and the remaining 400 KES we spent on food.

I'm planning to spend my upcoming cash transfer on buying a dairy cow, build a cow shed and renovate my house.
