RA 821 Section 14

Terms of loans.

Section 14

SEC. 14. Terms of loans.—The terms of loans made to farmers should be adjusted to the needs of the borrower with special attention being given to the following: Making the duration of the loan consistent with the period of time necessary to permit repayment by the borrower front his production. Adjusting the terms of repayment to the borrower's income from his production. Where necessary the repayment of the loan should be amortized over a period of time which will permit installment payments which are within the borrower's income. Granting extensions in the time for repayment when damages and destruction caused by insects, disease, weather and other causes beyond the power of the borrower to control occur. Since the production of the borrower must serve as the primary security, such production should be pledged as security with appropriate safeguards being taken to insure against unauthorized disposition. When the Administration considers such to be necessary to insure repayment, it may require a borrower to enter into a marketing agreement covering the terms which must be complied with, including notice to the Administration and manner of disposition of the produce covered by the contract. The duration of such contract shall be terminated when the borrower has complied with his obligation to the Administration. In the event of any breach or threatened breach of a marketing contract by a borrower, the Administration shall be entitled to an injunction and a decree of specific performance. Also, upon filing a verified complaint showing a breach or threatened, breach, the Administration shall be entitled to a temporary restraining order against such borrower.
