How to Apply for an Intermediate-Term Loan

Term loans are designed for significant expenditures or long-term investments in farming operations.

Term loans typically involve a lump sum disbursal at the beginning of the loan period and have a fixed repayment term. Term loans may be secured by collateral which in some cases can include the asset being financed or a personal guarantee.

Term loans can be used for:

  • Purchasing land
  • Buying machinery
  • Constructing facilities
  • Large capital outlays

We offer flexible financing for term loans with a variety of rate options and payment schedules that align with your cash flow. 

When applying for a term loan, be prepared to share some basic information about your operation, your financial background and what you plan to utilize the loan funds for. Your repayment capacity and credit history will be factored into the approval decision. 

Once approved, your local financial officer will work alongside you to choose the rates and terms that best fit your operation’s needs. If your financial needs change, you may be able to convert a variable-rate loan to fixed-rate loan or a fixed-rate loan to a variable-rate loan.
