The Farm Credit Banks of
Baltimore, of which the York
Association is a part, are
cooperatives and part of the
largest financial cooperative
in the world.
National Farm Credit
Governor Donald E.
Wilkinson outlined the ex
pected massive increase in
farm credit demand in the
future. Already larger than
the World Bank and the
International Monetary
Fund, the Farm Credit
System, with loans out
standing of 40 billion dollars,
expects to reach 100 billion
dollars in 10 years, ac
cording to Wilkinson.
The York Association
which serves farmers in
Adams, Cumberland,
Fulton, Franklin, Perry, and
York County presently has
loans outstanding totaling
$64,775,500.
It’s expected that farm
credit demands locally will
keep pace with the sharp rise
expected nationally. The
ever increasing costs of
farm inputs and rising land
values are the main forces
behind the increased
demand for farm credit.
