The program offers loans of up to 500,000 lei each and has registered a total demand of approximately five million lei.

MAIA clarifies that the Emergency Agricultural Credit is the only product of its kind backed by a 90% state guarantee. It remains accessible to clients of commercial banks with less-than-ideal credit histories.

This loan program is designed to help farmers who may be struggling financially.

The agricultural credit will be available until May 31, 2024.
