Hi everyone. My name is Andrey, I live in a small Ukrainian village. To begin with, I want to tell you a little how we live. Each villager has a small plot of land near the house of about 5 acres, and about 50 acres which are located outside the village. These 50 acres of land are not in one piece, but divided into parts and all in different places. In such conditions, it is very difficult to cultivate the land without our own equipment. It is not profitable to hire a tractor, but there is no other way out. Our income level is small and all that I could afford to buy is a walk-behind tractor. He certainly helps, but still it's hard to work with him, constant moving and reconfiguring attachments is very long and takes a lot of effort. Now with the help of a walk-behind tractor, I can only cultivate a third of my land without hiring a tractor. And this is the situation we have everywhere, the lands that were cultivated 10 years ago are now standing neglected and trees are beginning to grow there. Now those who have a tractor drive and work for hire. Although it is possible in another way, having a tractor and the appropriate equipment for it, you can simultaneously do business and help people at the same time practically free of charge. With all people who now do not use their land, you can conclude contracts and cultivate them for this, give them a part of the harvest. This is beneficial to everyone, for me it can be like starting a small business, and for people who cannot or have no money, the opportunity to receive a part of the harvest on a regular basis. Nobody here wants to do something that would benefit someone other than himself. With the opening of the land market, a bunch of agricultural holdings have just appeared and they are starting to buy everything for a penny, for which people are being led as there is no alternative. Perhaps I will become that alternative, and by my example, others will start such a semi-charitable business. Therefore, I put this project in the business category. In any case, your support is important to me so it will give me the opportunity to bring at least my land out of the state of disrepair and give me the opportunity to increase my family's income. The smallest set of equipment and a tractor costs about $ 10,000. It's hard to collect such an amount, especially if you have three children and a salary of $ 300 a month, a loan is also an option, so this income and interest will not cover. Thank you all, even for reading this, and in front of you for your help, both financial and can share this project on social networks. I do not have an account on social networks, but soon I am planning to open a small blog on this topic, and if you support me, there will be all the progress of work on my tractor. Thank you very much!
