13. Getting Money from the Land Bank for Farming

The Land Bank

Most people who have used up their land grant to buy land, want to know where they can get more money to use for farming. The Land Bank lends money to farmers. For poor farmers, the Land Bank will give loans without surety.

Who Can Benefit?

People who qualify for assistance are:

  • new farmers
  • land reform beneficiaries
  • poor farmers, especially women, who want to improve their farms
Different Kinds of Loans

Many different kinds of loans are available:

  • Loans without surety where a good repayment record will qualify you for a bigger loan next time.
  • Loans to people who also have a savings account with the Land Bank (at the Post Office).
  • Loans to buy farming equipment or livestock, with an insurance to cover your loan in case you can’t pay it.

Contact the Land Bank, to find out where the nearest Land Bank agent is who can give you advice about loans.
