About the farm

We invite HeavyFinance investor community to invest in a loan for a mixed farm in Jonava district. The farm has been operating since 2003. The farmer declares 189,27 ha of arable land, of which 100 ha are awned.

The farmer grows wheat, oilseed rape and other crops, as well as raising beef cattle. 

The farmer's machinery fleet consists of a combine harvester, two tractors, a sowing machine, a sprayer, a trailer and other necessery tillage equipment. The farmer works the land using no-till technology.

This is farmer's first loan on a HeavyFinance platform. The farmer is asking HeavyFinance community for a green loan, which will be used to purchase an additional machinery. The loan will be secured by the land plot owned by the farmer.

Main Terms

The principal will be repaid by the farmer in regular instalments over the span of 3 years in accordance with the repayment schedule.

135 hectares of land are included in the Green Loan program. It is estimated that a total of 1056 carbon certificates will be generated in 4 years (based on a conservative estimation). Consequently, investors will receive below indicated portion of sales proceeds from every carbon certificate generated from the land of the project owner involved in the program;

(1) 60% of income received during the loan period;

(2) 40% of income received for the following year after the loan period.

It is expected that the first carbon certificates will be generated and sold in the second quarter of 2026. The exact return will depend on the amount of sequestered CO2 levels and the sale price of the carbon certificates.

If the project owner (farmer) withdraws from the Carbon Credits Agreement and does not intend to follow the agreement on the carbon revenue split with investors, the project owner will be obliged to repay the entire loan as well as pay the penalty, calculated by multiplying the interest rate by the entire loan amount and period equal to the duration of the loan agreement plus 12 (twelve) months.

Investors of this loan would receive a penalty of 55000 EUR * 12% * 4 year = 26400 EUR. This penalty can be reduced by the return earned by investors from the carbon credits generated

If the project fails to be delivered successfully through no fault of the farmer, the farmer commits to paying investors a minimum interest rate of EURIBOR 6M + 1.5%. This commitment applies in situations such as the lack of market demand for selling carbon credits, among others.
