COLLEGE STATION — Certain
lending institutions are trying to stop
farmers from demanding higher
prices for their products by with
drawing credit already promised to
the farmers, a Virginia farmer says.
But, a spokesman for an institution
allegedly involved in such practices
Tuesday responded borrowers were
not, by policy, singled out for denial
of credit on the basis of such ac
tivities.
Don Patterson of The Plains, Va.,
said Tuesday during a question and
answer session on resource use and
production costs at the National
Farm Summit, the Farm Credit
Bank of Baltimore canceled pro
mised loans to at least one farmer
in that state because he participated
in the American Agriculture Move
ment.
“Last fall farmers in the American
Agriculture Movement were assured
by this institution they would be get
ting loans, but soon after they be
came active in AAM they were in
formed they were no longer credit
worthy,” Patterson said.
“Another family was told they
would have to get out of the move
ment to maintain their line of credit
with this institution.”
Patterson said the withdrawal of
credit is part of pressure applied in
some areas to convince farmers in
the AAM to stop working for higher
prices for farm goods.
The president of the Farm Credit
Banks of Baltimore, Gene Swac-
khamer, was participating in a panel
discussion at the Summit at the time
Patterson made his comments but
did not respond publicly to the alle
gations .
