Abstract

The Farm Service Agency (FSA) is amending the Farm Loan Programs (FLP) regulations to implement the Distressed Borrower Set- Aside (DBSA) Program and other changes. DBSA will provide a new loan servicing program for financially distressed borrowers that will allow for the deferral of one annual loan installment at a reduced interest rate. DBSA will provide a simpler option to resolve financial distress than existing loan servicing programs. In addition to helping borrowers by adding DBSA as a new loan servicing program, FSA is amending the FLP regulations to revise loan making and servicing to improve program access and delivery. This rule is part of FSA's ongoing efforts for farm loans to remove barriers to capital access and increase opportunities for borrowers to be successful.
