More about terms

The maturity of a short-term loan generally coincides with the normal production cycle of the commodity being produced, usually one year or less. Most often, loans are secured by a first lien on the crops or livestock to be produced and the income and receivables they generate.

Operating loans are approved and structured on the basis of a projected budget and cash flow so the repayment terms fit your operating needs.
