About the farm

A family farm located in Kaišiadoriai district, established in 1998, specializes in the cultivation of various grains and forage crops, including wheat, barley, rapeseed, beans, clover, and ryegrass. Currently, the farmer declares 176.97 hectares of arable land, while the family collectively manages a total of 258.76 hectares, of which, according to the farmer, 190 hectares are privately owned.

The farm’s equipment includes two Deutz Fahr tractors, a Claas Lexion combine, an Amazone Primera DMC 6000-2C direct drill, an Amazone UX 5200 sprayer, a fertilizer spreader, and other necessary machinery to ensure efficient and high-quality agricultural operations. To strengthen operational capacity during the busy season, one additional worker is hired.

The loan will be used for the acquisition of additional land, aimed at supporting the farm's long-term growth and sustainability. Join this project and support the family farm’s successful expansion, contributing to its stability and productivity.

Main Terms

The principal will be repaid by the farmer in regular instalments over the span of 5 years in accordance with the repayment schedule.

150 hectares of land are included in the Green Loan program. It is estimated that a total of 1755 carbon certificates will be generated in 6 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 55500 EUR * 12% * 6 year = 39960 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.
