Operating loans are made for the purchase of machinery, live stock, equipment, fertilizer, seed, tractor fuel and other farm and home operating expenses needed to carry out efficient farming operations on family-type farms. In some instances, a loan may be made for the refinancing of existing debts. Loans are also available to applicants who have part-time employment off the farm pro vided they are established farm ers conducting substantial farm ing operations and spending the major portion of their time farm ing. Such operators must have dependable sources of outside in come. Operating loans are repayable over periods of 1 to 7 years with the interest rate at 5 percent. The amount that can be loaned is based on the needs and the ability of the borrower to repay. Tne Joan must be sound. The ability to repay a loan made for operating a family-type farm is determined by the earn ing capacity of the farm and the operations the farmer intends to carry on. The Farmers Home Ad ministration supervisor assists each loan applicant in preparing a complete farm and home plan. No loan can be made unless this plan shows the farm income to be sufficient to provide the fam ily a good living, pay operating expqpses, cover depreci a t i o n costs, pay debts and leave a reasonable amount for reserve. Every borrower is expected to keep a complete record book to determine what direction he should take in each farm enter prise, to show his progress, and for income tax purposes. At the end of the year a review is made of the year's operations, and a new farm and home plan is pre pared. To be eligible an applicant must be a citizen of the United States, have had satisfactory farm experience or training, and be unable to obtain credit from other sources at a reasonable rate. He must also have, or be able to rent, a suitable family type farm. A local county committee de termines the eligibility of each applicant.
