What Is Tractor Financing?
Tractor financing in Pakistan is a term loan that helps farmers purchase a new tractor at a competitive markup rate. It falls under Allied Bank’s wider Agriculture Development Loans, which support farmers across the crop cycle.
Instead of paying the full tractor price upfront, you repay the loan gradually. Payments are structured around harvest income, so they do not clash with your farm’s cash flow.
Who Can Apply for Tractor Financing
Eligibility is built around the realities of farming life in Pakistan. Before applying, check that you meet the following requirements.
- You must be between 18 and 62 years of age.
- You must own and cultivate at least 5 acres of agricultural land.
- You are limited to financing one tractor under this facility.
- Women farmers can also apply for this facility.
This last point matters. Agriculture financing is not limited to male landowners, and Allied Bank welcomes applications from women who own or cultivate farmland.
