The Stonyfield Farm/CROPP Organic Conversion Fund is designed to assist dairy farmers to convert to organic production by easing the associated financial costs. The Conversion Fund supplies a no-interest loan for up to 60 months for farmers who sign on with CROPP as their milk processor (farmers who sign with other milk processors are still eligible for the loan, but pay 8% interest). The Fund is administered by MicroCredit-NH.
Before submitting an application to MicroCredit-NH for an organic conversion loan, applicants must contact:
