What are the eligibility requirements for a farm operating line?
There are several factors that are considered. The majority of approved borrowers have a credit score of at least 680; however, some exceptions exist. Additionally, repayment history, the line of credit amount requested relative to the applicant’s income and operation scale, and the overall financial health of the applicant’s ag operation impact eligibility. Multi-function crop and livestock operations are many times a good fit because farm operating lines call for crop production as the collateral. However, single livestock operations are not a fitting match.
