PCA predicts cheaper loans for farmers in 1975
Willard Ulbricht, field office manager, says money for qualified farmers and ranchers will come with gradually declining interest costs in 1975. By June PCA borrowers should pay about 1 to 1 1/2 percent less. Funds come from public bond sales to stockholders. Ulbricht warns members must tighten belts to cover rising production costs. El Campo PCA lent nearly $34 million in 1974, averaging $68,000 to 498 members, serving Calhoun, Colorado, Jackson, Matagorda, Refugio, Victoria and Wharton counties.
