"Our first plan is to use part of the transfer to start poultry keeping activity, with local chickens. Our second plan is to use another part of the transfer, to build a house, because this one is in a bad condition, and might fall down soon. Lastly, we plan to use the remaining amount to plough our farms, for food security."
