"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."

"My proudest achievement was when i got a bumper harvest from my one acre farm I sold part of the proceeds and built my kitchen. Initially i would endure bad weather cooking in the open or i would be forced to cook in my house which was not specious enough."

"My proudest achievement was building my iron sheet roofed house from the small grass thatched that was leaking and caused me embarassment amongest my peers as they would always mock me that my house was easy to burn like a birds house because it was grass thatched. Currently we do not have worries during rains and the house is spacious enough for us."
