"My most significant aspiration is to acquire a water pump that will facilitate the irrigation of my crops. I currently reside near a river where I cultivate vegetables for sale. Oftentimes, I have to manually transport water, a laborious and time-consuming task. To achieve this goal, I've devised a plan to set aside a minimum of $10 from my monthly earnings, earmarking it for the purchase of the water pump and irrigation pipes. This investment will allow me to utilize a larger agricultural area, subsequently increasing my sales. I aspire to expand my crop variety by cultivating more vegetables and other crops along the riverbank and setting up an efficient irrigation system using the pipes. The water pump is priced at $30, and I am confident that with consistent dedication to saving a portion of my monthly income, I will be able to acquire it and streamline the irrigation process."

"I have set a new goal to lease a piece of land for cultivation. The land I own has been unproductive because it's not close enough to the river for irrigation, which is crucial in our region due to the frequent lack of rainfall. My plan is to secure at least half an acre near the river and dedicate all my energy to cultivating maize for my family's consumption. We have been buying maize lately, and its prices have soared, making it difficult to afford. Having our source will ensure that my family does not go hungry, providing us with a sense of food security."

"In the coming year, my goal is to launch a farming venture and dedicate my efforts to it. I am fortunate that my uncle has agreed to lend me an acre of land situated near the river, making irrigation feasible as our region does not receive consistent rainfall. I am deeply grateful for this chance and am determined to make the most of it. I intend to cultivate maize and beans on this land, both for personal consumption and for commercial purposes. I am confident that this agricultural project will not only sustain my family but also provide a foundation for offering the best for my children's future, freeing me from the many worries of fending for them."

"I am a widow of two children . I live with one the other one is living in a nother location. I do casual jobs earning approximately $30 per month which caters for food only. Casual jobs are tedious with very low income that I cannot investment in any sustainable project. My community has been under drought for the past three years now making crop farming very difficult. I will use $1000 to buy generator and water pipes to go do irrigation along river Galana. This will bring sustainable food security to the family and also sell to the community and earn income."

"Over the last 6 months, I drew my joy and happiness from the harvest that people got in the irrigation farms in Sandai. This created jobs for us and I managed to purchase food and other household goods which delighted me so much."

"The prolonged drought is the main challenge that I feel is making my life difficult. During the planting season, I managed to sell my goats and planted one hectare of maize. However, I only got 90 KGS of maize. This is so because of the lack of rain and enough water for irrigation. This makes my life difficult because I know that in the next four months, I won't have food for my family which stresses me a lot."

"My happiness over the past 6 months came from the rains we received. This created a lot of opportunities for us to get casual work in the irrigation farms. This enabled us to put food on the table which delighted us so much."

"In the coming years, my primary focus will be on agriculture. I intend to lease one acre of land in a nearby irrigation scheme, where I can practice farming more effectively. My goal is to concentrate on cultivating maize primarily for sale, which I believe will generate a significant income. Additionally, after the maize harvest, I plan to plant green grams. This strategic approach to farming will ensure a steady source of income. I am confident that this farming venture will provide me with the financial means to provide the best possible education for my children, securing a brighter future for them."

"In the coming years, my primary focus will be on agriculture. I intend to lease land situated near a river, taking advantage of its water supply for irrigation, given the unpredictability of our rainfall. My plan is to cultivate both maize and millet, with the goal of meeting our domestic food needs and generating income through commercial sales. This agricultural venture will not only ensure that my family has an ample food supply but also enable me to comfortably afford my children's school fees."
