Sophorn is from Cambodia. She needs a loan of $75 to buy fertilizer.
Sophorn Vith operates a rice growing business in the Battambang Province of Cambodia. Due to a local water drought, her water supply has been limited causing a decrease in her rice harvest. The drought has had a major negative impact on her business and if nothing is done her crops will not survive.
With a loan from World Vision, Sophorn will be able to irrigate her fields which will lead to a better rice crop and a sustainable harvest. Sophorn supports her family with the income from her business. All profits go towards supporting her family's basic needs and help keep her family out of difficult financial stress.
Sophorn is the mother of three children.
The Agriculture business sector covers all farming and livestock activities. Some entrepreneurs request loans to help in securing supplies and equipment. Others want to buy more animals to breed or purchase feed and medicines. The majority of our loan clients live in rural communities where agriculture is already understood as a business model. It is for this reason that approximately 50% of our loans are in the agricultural sector.
