About The Project

Carolyne plans to increase the level of productivity in terms of output and input when she shall receive the CII donation. She also plans that after a certain period of time she will be able to sell her rice to the Ahero Processing Rice Company in order to avoid hoarders selling rice at cheaper prices.  Carolyne deals with third-grade rice, which is very difficult to maintain because the pests eat it and most farmers run this type of crop at a loss. 


Paying it Forward

She is not only a farmer, but she is also a trainer to the farmers during the planting time.

Funding Report

Backstory

Carolyne is married with four children.  She started this project a while ago because agriculture is her basic job to earn a living. She got motivated by a certain group of rice farmers after attending training. This group has empowered most women in terms of giving small loans to farmers then, after some time, the farmers return the money they have been loaned with interest. Through her agricultural activities, Carolyne is educating her children and earning a living from it. She has also helped a few family members from the benefit of her hard work and the returns from the farm. The challenge is, that she does not have the equipment needed for working on her farm, and lacks the money to expand her project of rice growing.
