CREDIT
(3
A SURE SIGN OF PROGRESS
IN AGRICULTURE
Providing the financing necessary to increase farm efficiency
and output is Farm Credit’s job. And only job, as it has been
for 50 years. Farm Credit loans are available today for any
sound farm need from buying a ton of feed to acquiring addi-
tional acreage. Farm Credit interest charges are reasonable as
they are calculated on the amount of money actually in use.
That’s why Farm Credit loans cost less.
