Where do I apply for an FSA loan to buy or operate a farm?
You can apply for a direct loan at your local FSA office or USDA Service Center. To find the office nearest you, go to http://offices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?state=us&agency=fsa. FSA guaranteed loans are made and serviced by local agricultural banks and Farm Credit System institutions. FSA local offices can provide you a list of lenders who participate in the guaranteed loan program. You can then go to a bank and apply for a loan. The lender arranges for the guarantee.
