Did you do any feasibility/market study before buying the tractor.........since you don't seem to know the ploughing season or even where your potential clients are. Anyway a visit to your local agriculture office could answer your questions.

Or you could buy a trailer for the tractor and start transporting building materials, taka taka etc.

Kibarua is a loosing game... i can't enumerate all issues now. But been there, done that and once you sit back evaluate, it's not worth it. Now my tractor does my own tilling, then wash and back to store to wait next own job.

I suggest you divert the cash you've into hiring lots of land and till it for your planting.

But try and report back after one year. Good luck.
