Banks for Farmers Senator Owen Seeks Long Term Farm Credit
Senator Owen reports his committee has studied agricultural banking and will propose a bill to create banks for farmers. The Glare-Owen Bill would allow country banks to loan on farm mortgages up to half land value and repay over nine months, with bank loan limits. It argues farmers need long term credit for crops, livestock, and land improvements, not short nine month loans.
