Hey guys
I was born in a farm actually at home no hospital midwife. i love farming and i love tractors. in college my research was on why farmers fail here in kenya. i found that they dont take farming as a business and they lack knowledge and equipment.My first tractor was a used international 744 in 2006 and from the word go it never worked and spare parts were a problem. After using almost $15,000 its still lying at home due to lack of spare parts. In 2010 I TOOK A LOAN and bought a second hand MF 178 again imported from britain and again from the word go never gave me money. actually it was just parts put together though i have managed to repair engine. Lack of capital is the problem but i hope to repair, sell them and buy a new one. MY picture was in Daily nation (kenya) on 23/7/2012 page 34. to see my picture In GODS favour i wish to succed in farming
