Lending terms for ranchers

Agriculture Financial Services Corporation says it has made “some interim changes to our loan processes” to assist producers who need funds to buy feed, gain access to water or buy breeding females.

“These changes include quick processing of loans up to $200,000, interest-only payments for up to 24 months, up to 60-month loan amortization and flexible collateral considerations,” said Jason Turner, the crop insurer’s lending manager.

Cattle producers who already have loans are encouraged to call AFSC if they want to look at interest-only payments, payment deferrals or re-amortization, he said. They should speak to a lending relationship manager.
