MACHINES!
El Tigre, the threshing machine We thank God and our ministry partners! Through a grant, we were able to buy a small threshing machine! This machine has proved very useful to us and a few farmers who wanted to try the machine too! The machine offers savings on time and labor costs. This machine introduces farmers to new technologies and also shows them another oppertunity to grow their agribusiness by offering machining services. If a farmers wants to buy the machine, he can! All I need is my machinist apron! During our field day in May, we met Miguel, his family has a good size agricultural machine business. They sell tractors, combines and other farming equipment. They also fabricate equipment in their shop. I was talking to him about a small, portable machine for threshing beans. He said they had a new model they fabricate in their shop in the capital city Managua. He showed me some pictures and a video, and I decided to order it! Everything was made in the shop, except for the 6hp
