AIF Financing
The Co-op is the place to go for top quality products that producers need for their operations: seed, fertilizer, crop protection, feed, fuel, and much more. More and more producers are learning about something else that has been added to the list. You can not plant it, feed it, or spread it, but it will help keep your operation growing just the same.
It is called AgInput Finance, AIF, and is offered by local Co-ops and TFC subsidiaries. It is the most convenient, flexible form of financing available. AIF, a line of credit, producers can use for the Co-op products and services available. For your input financing needs at competitive rates, see a local participating Co-op.
AIF Features:
- Seasonal Input Credit
- Minimum credit of $10,000 for inputs
- Credit available by single or in multiple advances
- Growing crops typically are used for collateral
- Monthly variable or fixed interest rates
- Maturity date to match growing season of particular crop, but never later than April 15, following the crop year
Fast… Flexible… Friendly… AIF only at the Co-op!
