      The project

      Mrs. Chhai Bunteang, 32, is married and lives with her three children in the Tboung Khmum Province of Cambodia. She and her husband working on the pepper farm together to earn additional income to support the family living since 2000. She also opens a grocery store at home to aid the family income.

      To make more profits, she is asking for a loan to purchase one hectare farmland and the rest of the loan she will use to purchase farming materials to grow more pepper. She sees these purchase will allow her to expand her pepper farm, to boost her crop yields, and increase her family income as well.
