CREDIT PROGRAMS CHANGE Farmers' continuing need for short-term credit has prompted an extension of the Ontario Farm Adjustment Assistance Program (OFAAP) and the creation of a new Operating Loan Assistance Program (OLAP). The new program was announced by Agriculture Minister, Timbrell at the annual convention of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture Agriculture in Toronto. The two programs are aimed at providing assistance for viable farm enterprises experiencing short-term financial difficulties. "Interest deferral and interest reduction grants - Options A and B - will remain as they have been," Timbrell said. "Option C, guaranteeing a new line of bank credit for operating purposes, will remain in force for up to three years, but only for those currently participating in this option." Farmers who need guarantees on operating credit and who are not already using OFAAP's option C can apply for the new Operating Loan Assistance Program which comes into effect January 1,1985. "This new initiative will provide guarantees on operating credit from approved lending institutions at not more than prime plus one per cent," said Timbrell. "Loans guaranteed under the new program will be eligible for interest reduction grants from the OFAAP program."
