I invested heavily last year on some farm products and now the fruits of our labour are being realised.
This was on Cereals i.e. beans,Minji and Dengu.All this work was entrusted on a person who has since proved to be trustworthy.
After deducting my expenses from the proceeds tunawachwa na na kitu 1.2m.I am thinking of taking 2/3 while I give her the other 1/3 in appreciation.
Note that I never paid her a penny let alone for the facilitation fee,but she willingly supervised and looked after the crop till its harvest time and eventually selling time.
Is 1/3 of the profit good enough for her.Sijamwambia,I still need her for the next business venture.Put yourself in my shoes how would you handle this kind of situation.
Ku facilitate kama siko.For instance ku organize watu wa kupanda,kupalilia,kupiga dawa,harvesting and shelling ,she oversaw most of the farming cycle activities.Mimi nilikuwa natuma tu doo and following up once in a while
1/3 iko sawa kabisa.Usikubali kudanganywa na tamaa.Pay her well and she will handle the venture like her own. Pay her poorly and that could be your last smile to the bank.
When we set out on this hatukuwa na agreement yoyote,I only helped her lease, buy mbegu and fertilizer for the 5 acres,she promised to look after mine while she tended to hers.Mine were over 20 acres.With all that in mind I was thinking she contributed alot to the final output.
