Payment Deferral Program

As the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic continues to impact our nation and the world, we at Farm Credit of Southern Colorado are acutely aware of the challenges this virus and related economic shock has presented to our customers. In response to this evolving situation, we have created a special relief assistance program to support our customers in a time of need.

Payment Deferral Relief Option

This farm loan payment deferral is offered without a fee as of April 1, 2020 and you may choose loan by loan to opt in now or at any time within the current fiscal year. Your elections will apply to all future payments.

Monthly Payments

You can elect to defer up to three consecutive monthly payments of principal and interest. The deferred payments will be added to the end of the loan resulting in a larger balloon payment due at maturity. We will consider extensions of maturity when the loan approaches the balloon payment.

Quarterly, Semi-Annual & Annual Payments

You can elect to defer up to one quarterly, semi-annual or annual payment of principal and interest. The deferred payment will be added to the end of the loan resulting in a larger balloon payment due at maturity. We will consider extensions of maturity when the loan approaches the balloon payment.
