Agricultural Finance, the larger segment at $20.5 billion, focuses on mortgage loans for farms, ranches, and agribusinesses. Infrastructure Finance, at $9.0 billion, provides financing for rural electric, telecommunications, and renewable energy projects. Each line of business has specific loan eligibility criteria, underwriting standards, and product offerings, including direct loan purchases, AgVantage securities, and Long-Term Standby Purchase Commitments (LTSPCs) - The Agricultural Finance line of business includes the Farm & Ranch and Corporate AgFinance segments, providing a secondary market for agricultural mortgage loans and USDA-guaranteed loans3940 - The Infrastructure Finance line of business includes the Power & Utilities, Broadband Infrastructure, and Renewable Energy segments, focusing on loans for rural electric, telecommunications, and renewable energy facilities6566 - AgVantage securities are a key product where Farmer Mac guarantees and purchases securities issued by lenders that are secured by pools of eligible loans.
