Drought Loans Go Begging

COURT HOUSE - Emergency Joans for Cape May CouiSty fanners who suffered losses from drought this year are gang begging, according to Samuel E. Blanco, county supervisor far the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA). Farmers became eligible for the loans Nov. 22 and have six months, until May 22, to apply for loans. “Based on preliminary assessments, we expect that about 10 farmers in this county will apply for emergency Joans,’’ Blanco said. “So far, we have . received no applications.” Blanco urges affected farm operators to submit their applications -early, even if they cannot yet certify actual losses. This, •Blanco said, will permit FmHA officials to complete most of the preliminaries. Once the preliminary’ application is submitted, the farmer can wait until losses are determined to provide the final information needed to support earlier estimates. The FmHA office for the county, on Rte. 9 in Burleigh, is open 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) office located in Burieigh, according to FmHA County Supervisor Samuel E. Blanco. Cape May County is one of 12 counties in New Jersey recently named‘by Secretary of Agriculture John R. Block as eligible for loans to cover part of actual production losses resulting from the drought. BLANCO SAID farmers may be eligible for loans of up to 80 percent of their actual losses, or the operating loan needed to continue in business, or $600,000, whichever is less. For farmers unable to obtain credit from private commercial lenders, the interest rate on the first $100,000 borrowed is 5 percent: interest rate is 8 percent on the balance borrowed over that amount.‘For farmers who can obtain commercial credit but who choose to borrow from FmHA, the interest rate is 13.75 percect. As a general rule, a farmer must have suffered at least a 30 percent loss of production to be eligible for

an FmHA emergency loan, Blanco said. Farmers participating in the federal crop insurance programs will have to figure in proceeds from those programs in determining their loss. Applications for laans under this emergency designation will be accepted until May 22, 1984, but fanners should apply as soon as possible. Delays in applying could create backlogs in processing and possibly carry over into the new farming season. Blanco said. FmHA is a credit agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It is authorized to provide disaster emergency loans to recognized fanners who work at and rdy on terming for a substantial part of their living Eligibility, is extended to individual farmers who are U.S. citizens, 'and to farming partnerships, corporations or cooperatives in which U.S. citizens hold a majority interest.
