Kiplangat
enrolled.
"Starting up farming business is an achievement am proudest of in life. Am a teacher by profession and since am yet to be employed by the government, the salary I get is dismal. Farming has supported me in many ways and it is the money I get from farming that has seen my children get basic needs and quality education."
