No 316658, Farmer Cooperative Research Report (FCRR) from United States Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service

Abstract: Excerpts from the report: The Farm Credit Administration, in recognition of the growing need to provide credit for the purchase of farm supplies and of the possible impact of this need on the financial structure of individual cooperatives, began developing approaches to the credit problem. The Production Credit Association (PCA) Cooperative-Patron Credit Plan was developed as one approach. The purpose of this report is to provide information about the PCA Cooperative-Patron Credit Plan. It will be of interest to anyone wishing additional information on the organization, operation, and use of this relatively new type of credit program. It will be of especial interest to cooperatives which have not studied the PCA plan in relation to their operations and needs. The PCA plan can be considered as a part of a broad program to assist farmers in adjusting to their individual credit needs, or as a permanent part of a flexible credit program for the cooperative.
