      The project

      Mrs. Horl Len, 36, is married and lives with her husband in Kampong Cham province. In the past five years, she was a worker collecting rubber for a private company to earn a meager income. Since the profit was small, she has changed to sell grocery from home and works as a reseller, selling cassava and cashew nuts.

      She is now would like to make a new investment, by requesting a loan to purchase a hectare of farmland to grow cashew nuts. The plantation will allow her to collect income in 3-4 years.
