    What happens if the crop fails?

    Which it could do, its hard to predict the weather, even harder due to climate change.

    Wow - that's impressive. How much does that cost?

    Are you still based outside the UK?

    Yes. I am a farmer engaged ın contract farmıng. Thıs ıs a kınd of farmıng where farmers enter ınto agreements / contract wıth buyers before the harvest. Buyers commıt to purchase farm products when the harvest ıs due. The plantıng season ıs due and the contract ıs ın place. I wanted the loan to purchase more seeds. Thıs wıll ıncrease the harvest and help meet the ever ıncreasıng and unsatısfıed demand for these farm products. It ıs therefore a vıable ınvestment wıth good returns.

    More importantly why do your i's not have the dot on them?

    Yes. I am based in overseas.
    The insurance cover is for the entire project not just for the seeds.

    Ah, OK, so you're looking for a UK based lender to send money to someone based "in overseas"?
  • Well this turned out to be a waste of time didn't it?

    I am curious as to exactly what crop you intend to grow and in which country you intend to grow it.
    I doubt that you actually want a loan with a 3 month term repayable in 3 equal monthly instalments over the next 3 months as it will surely take you longer than 3 months from today to grow, harvest and sell the crop.
    If you are not a UK resident you will not normally be able to get a loan in the UK.
