      The project

      Sineat and her husband are farmers who lives with two children in Tboung Khmum province. they grow mangos on two hectares of farmland, grow rubber on three hectares of farmland, grow durian and rambutan (a kind of tropical fruits) on one hectare of farmland, and grow pepper on one hectare of farmland.

      Before this couple become professional farmers, they have joined agricultural training class and learned from his neighbor who has many years of experience. Recently, the pepper plantation is making much more profit since the demand are from EU countries. There is no matter how much the product they have, the dealer are always buy all the pepper. The other products like mangos, durian, and rambutan are to supply the local market especially in the province where he live.

      Since the pepper plantation is making more profit to support the family, Sineat and her husband are requesting for a loan to purchase one hectare of pepper plantation to earn more income. Must be repaid in 48 months.
