Extractions: Two key issues are addressed by this plan of work: 1) risk management and 2) financial management The first issue is risk management. The 1996 farm legislation shifted additional risk from the federal government to the farmer. Thus there is a growing need and demand for risk management tools and alternatives in the agricultural sector. Simultaneously, structural changes in agriculture are driving integration of the food supply chains in the sector. New risk management alternatives, including insurance programs and contractual arrangements, have been and are being developed. These alternatives provide farmers with new tools but also complex decisions in selecting risk management tools and appropriate marketing strategies. To remain competitive in agriculture, Iowa producers must manage their risk effectively and efficiently. The second issue is financial management. Effective financial management is a key component in attaining a profitable, sustainable, and competitive agricultural sector. Agricultural producers and agribusinesses face severe multi-year financial stresses, and closely-related structural issues of a longer-term nature. Financial pressures in the agricultural sector have adverse impacts on non-farm businesses, families, and the ability of communities to provide educational, medical and other essential services. Net income differences between the high and low one-third of producers show that potential gains from improved financial management are possible.

Extractions: Search: The basic intent of the Alternate Energy Revolving Loan Program (AERLP) is to encourage the development of alternate energy production facilities and small hydroelectric facilities within the State of Iowa. The Iowa Energy Center (IEC) was chosen to establish guidelines and administer the program. The AERLP provides low interest loans to individuals and organizations who want to build alternate energy production facilities in Iowa. The loan program is open to all individuals or organizations with the exception of utilities that are not required to be rate regulated. The energy production facility must be located in Iowa. The loans are not available for refinancing existing loans. As structured, interested parties submit a technical application to the IEC which provides specific technical, operational, and cost details about the planned alternate energy production facility. All submissions received during a given application cycle are reviewed and ranked. Those applications receiving the highest ranking are selected to receive loans, subject to the amount of funds currently available in the program. Applications must be received by June 30 and December 31 of each year. All applications received during a given cycle will be reviewed at the close of that cycle.
