Two important things
when borrowing money
You need a sharp pencil plus the specialized financial advice 1
of Farm Credit to determine how your financial needs can j
best be served. Farm production must be maintained, even
increased if possible. Providing the financing to insure this is
Farm Credit’s job. Farm Credit loans are available nowfor any
sound farm need. And, at realistic rates. Farm
Credit interest is based on the unpaid balance ,
of the loan. That saves you money.
