25-Feb-2010 (16 years 3 months 14 days ago)Canadian agriculture producers and agribusiness operators who are considering the use of renewable energy sources in their business will soon have a new financing option thanks to a new Energy Loan announced by Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz.
The Farm Credit Canada (FCC) Energy Loan is designed to assist producers and agribusiness owners who want to make the move towards producing their own renewable energy.
A recent FCC Vision survey showed that 60 per cent of individuals surveyed are considering new ways to find financial value by reducing their environmental impact. The survey, completed in November 2009 by 1,172 producers and agribusinesses across the country, revealed that 37 per cent of those people looking at reducing their impact are considering the use of renewable energy sources in their operation.
