Farmers Benefit From New Farm Loan Plan
Uncle Sam offers a government land loan at 6 percent interest with a fixed annual reduction to wipe out the debt in 23 years. Unlike old five and 10 year loans, the borrower pays interest yearly and may not reduce principal, facing renewal costs and bailouts if the loan is not carried. The new plan allows full payoff anytime with a small initial fee to cover a federal examiner’s costs. Farmers express enthusiasm and are beginning to use the loan.
