with the total paid uSp capital of NRs. 9, 00, 000 and this initial investment
has been sourced from shareholders in a equal proportion. He also added that
the company has a long term-far sighted vision and rigorously looking for potential
low interest loan investments, government aids and other encouraging subsidies
from the concerned authority. To make a
village of farm by extending aloe vera to 10 more ropanies in the next year
with the total plants of 20 thousand, along with a commercial home stay and
also to add a live stock farm of goat, pig and poultry.
Nevertheless,
there is a strong need of aspiring and exciting actions form the government
side in order to promote this type of zeal’s towards the agro entrepreneurship.
For this reason government has to frame policy to aid and inspire small and
micro entrepreneurship particularly in the agro field because this field is of
maximum potential in the context of Nepal. This not only reduces the huge
unemployment problem but also prevents the nation from the cancer of brain
drain and instead adds to national revenue and employment opportunity.
