The context and objectives of the Agricultural Credit Project are therefore somewhat dif­ ferent from most AID credit projects, including earlier AID loans for agricultural credit in Costa Rica. To the extent possible, I have adhered to the annotated outline provided for the Spring Review. However, I have added additional material to provide context and purpose, and have ignored those items which appear irrelevant to this particular activity. Albert L.

INTRODUCTION AID has financed small farm agricultural credit operations in Costa Rica through three project loans dating from 1961, and has provided technical assistance to the borrower, the Banco Nacional de Costa Rica. These earlier activities were typical project loans to an established intermediate credit institution. The activity described in this Country Project Paper is the Agricultural Credit Project of the AgriciLltural Sector Program which was funded as a sector loan. A. SMALL FARM CREDIT IN THE BANKING SYSTEM The National Banking System (NBS) of Costa Rica is a nationalized system consisting of four commercial banks and a central bank. The central bank controls the growth and distribution of credit through the maximum and minimum levels which it sets for various classes of credit and to which the commercial banks must adhere. The commercial banks receive leposits and lend money at rates established by the cen­ tral oank. The relative importance of the commercial banks in providing agricultural credit may be judged from the following 1971 data: Agricultural Credit Operations No. of No. of Amount Lent Small Offices Operations ($millions) Farm Banco Nacional de Costa Rica 56 22,797 65.0 30 Banco de Costa Rca 11 6,226 31.9 5 Banco Anglo Costarricense 9 2,562 8.8 15 Banco de Credito Agricola de Cartago 2 1,594 7.0 11 Source: MAG Boiitin Estadistico. Note: This total of $112.7 million is $22.6 million below the total agricultural credit reported for this period by BCCR. 1 In 1971, credit in the National Banking System was distributed as follows: $millions Percent Livestock 61.9 24.7 Coffee Harvest 27.9 11.2 Other Agricultural 45.5 18.1 Total Agricultural 135.3 54.o Non-Agricultural 115.2 46.o Total Credit 250.5 100.0 Non-banking system agricultural credit amounts to another $30 or $40 million from agricultural suppliers, moneylenders, rural stores, cooperatives, fiduciary warehouses and friends and relatives. From 1965 to 1970, credit growth was restrained to annual incre­ ments of 3 to 7 percent. In 1970, this restraint was eased and credit allowed to advance almost 17 percent. In 1971, the central bank intro­ duced a more flexible system of control, and credit i-ushroomed by 28 percent. In the first six months of 1972, credit growth has been held to an annual rate of 10 percent. The growth in agricultural credit paralleled that of total credit until the rapid rises of 1970 and 1971. However, in the twenty-four months between June 1970 and June 1972, total credit increased by 53 percent, non-agricultural credit increased by 67 percent, and livestock credit increased by 62 percent, but crop credit (after excluding credit for the coffee harvest) increased by only 22 percent. In Costa Rica, four crops-coffee, bananas, sugar cane and rice­ account for 96 percent of all crop credit; coffee alone (including credit for the coffee harvest) absorbs 83 percent. Similarly, credit for beef cattle absorbs 88 percent of all livestock credit. With the exception of rice, these crops tend to be grown by larger farmers and tend to be exported. 2 Small farm credit balances from the national banking system totaled $28.9 million in December 1970, equivalent to 20 percent of all agricultural credit and 11.5 percent of all credit. Non-bank sources of small farm credit probably do not exceed an additional $lO million. About 85% of small farm credit is dispensed by the Banco Nacional de Costa Rica (BNCR) through 56 field offices. BNCR has been the direct beneficiary of three earlier AID loans totaling $15 million-about half its total small farm portfolio. From 1960 to 1969, this portfolio (ex­ clusive of AID loans) grew by only 34 percent, from $7.8 mill on to $10.6 million. Well over half the BNCR small farm portfolio is in live­ stock, reflecting both the term requirements of the AID loans and the suitability of livestock as a loan guarantee. For several years, the number of BNCR small farm debtors has remained constant at 28,000, ab­ sorbing all portfolio growth in larger average loan size.

  • Discrepancias Entre Uso Actual Y Potencial De Las Laderas Del Valle De Orosi
    Rev. Reflexiones 87 (2): 91-110, ISSN: 1021-1209 / 2008 DISCREPANCIAS ENTRE USO ACTUAL Y POTENCIAL DE LAS LADERAS DEL VALLE DE OROSI Víctor Ml. Cortés Granados* [email protected] Fecha de recepción: 1º de setiembre 2008 - Fecha de aceptación: 10 de octubre 2008 Resumen El área de estudio tiene una extensión de 92 km2, localizada en la cuenca del Río Grande de Orosi, con lluvias que varían entre los 1665 y 6287 mm. Esta zona está comprendida, entre las localidades de Purisil, Orosi, Ujarrás y Cachí. El uso actual de la tierra es en un 48 % bosque, 21 % café, 17 % pastos y el resto pequeñas parcelas de cultivos anuales (tomate, chile, papa, etc.), cultivos perennes (chayote, caña de azúcar, cítricos, etc.), embalses, uso urbano y tierras misceláneas. Está dominada por pendi- entes entre 15 y más de 75 %, o sea por las clases de capacidad de uso de la tierra VI, VII y VIII, las cuales comprenden el 73 %, del total de clases presentes en la zona de estudio; esto quiere decir que las laderas del Valle de Orosi son de vocación agrícola restringida, principalmente para uso forestal. Abstract Studied area corresponds to 92 km2, located at the Río Grande de Orosi basin, which anual precipita- tion goes from 1665 mm to 6287. This región includes the localites of Purisil, Orosi, Ujarrás and Cachí. Current usage of this land is 48 % forest, 21 % coffee plantings 17 % pasture grounds and rest is destined to small plot of anual crops (tomato, pepper, patato, among others), perennial crops (chayote, sugar cane and citrus), dams, housing and miscellaneous activities.
