How ag finance is different from rural and farm


finance
Agricultural finance, farm finance, and rural finance are
related concepts but have different scopes. Agricultural
finance refers to the financing of agriculture-related
activities, from production to market. It includes financing
for inputs, such as seeds, fertilizers, and machinery, as
well as financing for marketing and distribution 1Farm
finance is a subset of agricultural finance and deals with
the financial resources related to individual farm
units2Rural finance is a broader term that encompasses
all financial services provided in rural areas, including
agricultural finance, microfinance, and other financial
services3
SCOPE AND NATURE OF Ag Finance
Agricultural finance is the study and practice of providing financial services to
the agricultural sector. It covers both the micro and macro aspects of
financing agriculture, such as:

 Credit: The provision of loans and advances to farmers, agribusinesses, and


other actors in the agricultural value chain, for various purposes such as input
purchase, production, marketing, processing, etc.
 Insurance: The protection of farmers and other stakeholders from the risks
and uncertainties associated with agriculture, such as weather, pests,
diseases, price fluctuations, etc.
 Savings: The mobilization of deposits and other forms of savings from the
rural population, especially smallholders, to provide them with a secure and
convenient way of storing their surplus income and accessing credit.
 Payments: The facilitation of fast and efficient transactions among the
participants in the agricultural sector, using various modes such as cash,
cheques, cards, mobile money, etc.
 Investment: The allocation of funds to the agricultural sector for the
development of infrastructure, technology, human capital, research,
innovation, etc., to enhance the productivity, profitability, and sustainability of
agriculture.

Agricultural finance is a branch of agricultural economics that deals with the


financial resources related to individual farm units and the agricultural sector
as a whole. It is important for the socio-economic development of the country,
as it helps to increase the agricultural output, income, and welfare of the rural
population, and to reduce the regional and inter-farm disparities. It also
contributes to the food security, energy security, and environmental
protection of the nation123
