Agricultural Producer Investment Fund

Established December 2004, and modified in January 2006, the Agricultural Producer Investment Fund was developed to provide loan opportunities to farmers in Kentucky interested in making operational transitions.

KAFC will provide and/or participate in loans for individual producers for capital expenditures for agricultural projects involving real estate and/or capital improvements.

The Agricultural Producer Investment Fund will not provide loans for operating expenses or to refinance existing debt.

KAFC will work in harmony with financial institutions that have offices in Kentucky, the Farm Service Agency, and with other agencies to leverage available funds to secure attractive financing opportunities for producers.

Special consideration will be given to limited resource farmers and to producers who have received or who are receiving income from tobacco. KAFC involvement will be limited to loan programs with specific guidelines and objectives, including the Agricultural Infrastructure Loan Program.

Applications are due two weeks before the Board meeting date. See application deadlines for scheduled dates.
