Save on interest rade
. Farmers can have big
savings by bargaining on
interest rates, Bill
Benson, Second Vice -
President of -,the Ontario ,
Federation of Agriculture
told a group of area
farmers in Amberley on
Thursday.
Benson told the
regional meeting of the
Huron County Federation
of Agriculture, many
farmers with a good
credit rating had recently
been able to negotiate a
much lower interest rate
than was originally
quoted. He added, the
practice is not just
confined to the banks, but
is general amongst
financial institutions.
Benson urged farmers
to be aggressive in their
negotiations. 'The
savings are there but you
will never get them until
you ask. Farmers should
shop for credit just as
carefully • as they do for
anything else," he said.
i
Benson pointed out
interest payments had
become an increasing
burden for the province's
farmers. "Operating
costs have skyrocketed
and the price of new land,
equipment and buildings
is nearly beyond belief.
When you combine that
with the low product
prices of last year's, it
means the farmer is now
as dependant upon the
financial institutions as
any other businessman."
The latest figures from
Statistics Canada show
that in 1977, Ontario's
farmers paid $204 million
in interest charges. This
compares with $187
million the year before.
Benson forecast the
combination of even
higher interest rates and
increasing indebtedness
would drive the figure
still higher in 1978.
Benson said he hoped
for the sake of the farm
community that the
recent increases in farm
gate prices would con-
tinue. He concluded 'owe
need the increases just to
pay the interes.",
