Shivani

A loan helped to buy chicks and the necessary feed.

Farming is seasonal, and Shivani and her husband would like to smooth out their income. So they have decided to start a poultry business. The hill country they farm is not consistently productive and poultry offers a more reliable livelihood throughout the year.

With a loan, Shivani will buy some chicks to fatten and then sell in the market. As she builds up her flock and her earnings, she will buy more hens and create a sustainable business.
