How Yoharvest helps Karugaba

Karugaba's Story: Overcoming Challenges Through Yoharvest

Meet Karugaba, a diligent smallholder farmer from Kenya who specializes in growing peas and beans. Despite his dedication, Karugaba faces a persistent challenge that many farmers like him encounter: limited access to affordable loans to support his farming operations.

Problem: Financial Barriers and Uncertainty

Karugaba’s aspirations to expand his pea and bean cultivation are hindered by the lack of access to credit. Traditional lenders often require extensive paperwork and collateral, making it difficult for smallholder farmers like Karugaba to secure loans.

Additionally, the absence of a reliable credit rating system leaves Karugaba in a state of uncertainty, making it challenging to demonstrate his creditworthiness to potential lenders.
