I would like to be a director on my own farm.
I would like to be a director on my own farm.
BACKGROUND
I am the last born to a humble family of 3 siblings. I reside in my traditional home in Buliisa district, with one of my parents who used to do fishing. I am the most educated among all, currently under a bachelor's degree that I undertook after my high school.
Through out my education I studied in government schools.
MY CHOICE OF STUDIES
First and foremost, Buliisa, my district depends on cassava, kalo and fishing. This has greatly reduced the fish stocks in the aquatic ecosystem and serious exhaustion of soil resources.
I gained passion on how to bring about other crops in production for the sustainability of livelihood and restore the degraded soils limited to cassava production. The option for me was therefor to take up the agricultural field of education. I would like to be a director at my own farm, with over 200 heads of cattle and a viable plantation.
This will offer employment opportunities to others as managers, accountants, marketers, among others.
INTERESTS
I do fishing most of the time with my father, given the fact that I grew from a landing site, so I find it as a hobby.
I also like soccer and some times organise for friends to play.
