  • Financing Your Farm Operation 13 Resource Kit for Nova Scotia Farmers
    Financing Your Farm Operation 13 Resource Kit for Nova Scotia Farmers Getting Money for Your New Farm Enterprise With any new farm venture, the importance of starting out with personal savings cannot be understated. Whether they’re used to completely finance a small farm business as a supplement to your day job, or to put a substantial down payment into a million-dollar farm purchase, those savings can make a big difference to the success of your operation. It is worth the wait to build your own farm start-up account. If you are starting a new business, set aside the personal cash you have available for your farm in a separate bank account called your “farm account.” Use this money judiciously for start-up expenses. When you earn income from the sale of farm goods, replenish this farm account and continue what you can afford for your farm. Chances are you will be inspired and creative with your purchasing knowing you have to stretch those dollars. (Note: enrolling in the AgriInvest program can help you grow those savings faster through government contributions. For more information, see Fact Sheet #17: Farm Risk Management.) Once your products have a clear demand and you are not able to keep up with sales, then it is time to consider a loan or financing to allow for more rapid expansion of the profitable aspects of your farm. If you reach the stage where you’re ready for a loan to expand your start-up or to purchase a farm as a going concern, you will need to present potential lenders with a solid business plan that exhibits a realistic strategy for paying it off (see Fact Sheet #14: Business Plans).
