Beatrice from Kenya

$125 to access premium seeds and high-quality fertilizer for one acre of maize, in addition to advice and insurance, optimizing for increased productivity and profits.

Beatrice is a 65-year-old maize farmer in Kapsowar, Kenya. In addition to farming her core crop, she currently has 20 chickens and four cows on her land. Beatrice historically struggled to access credit for high-quality inputs, which compromised the quality of her harvest. She is excited to have access to high-quality inputs, advice and insurance from an Apollo Agriculture loan, to increase her yields.

With this product, Beatrice expects higher profits this season, which she hopes to invest back into her farm in subsequent seasons.
