FarmCash advances now available

Farmers in the four western provinces can now receive their FarmCash advances.

The program gives low-interest loans of up to $ 1 million with the first $ 250,000 interest-free.

If the federal budget passes, that will go up to $350,000.

“The Alberta Wheat Commission is proud to administer FarmCash as a service to agricultural producers that allows them to mitigate some of the challenges of modern-day farm financing,” says AWC chair and Sexsmith farmer Greg Sears.
