Driving Efficiency in Farm Loan Delivery
The Farm Service Agency (FSA) is amending the Farm Loan Program (FLP) regulations to permanently implement the Application Fast Track (AFT) process, which expedites underwriting for certain direct loan applicants by using financial benchmarks and historical repayment data to identify applicants least likely to default. This rule also includes regulatory changes intended to improve program efficiency and support IT modernization efforts consisting of minor policy changes, clarifications, and technical corrections. These changes are part of FSA's ongoing effort to deliver farmer-focused programs in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible.
