There are many variables and risk factors in producing a profitable crop. From new enhanced seed traits designed to enhance yield and or quality to global market impacts. At Paterson Grain, we work with producers to Plan their Production and the Marketing of their crop to maximize their profit.
Starting with a fall soil test which will give us an indication of crop nutritional needs followed by a crop production budget comparison allows producers to review and compare potential returns. Optimized yield plans and the development of a sound marketing plan helps us work towards meeting or exceeding profit per acre targets. Knowing your costs, both variable and fixed is the key to sound marketing and risk management decisions. Having a budgeted profit also allows for improved decision making when pricing your crop and often can remove the emotion out of the decision to sell or wait for higher prices.

Financial Services
We know the challenges of managing finances for crop production. To help make things easier for our customers we developed Paterson Financial with the features that matter most.
PATERSON FINANCIAL CREDIT LINE
We know the challenges of managing finances for crop production. To help make things easier for our customers we developed Paterson Financial with the features that matter most.
- 30-60 days short-term interest free financing. Invoices (O.A.C) are due end of month following the month of invoice.
- flexibility for longer term financing at competitive rates
- allowances for fall purchases to the next crop year.
Our credit line offerings have the flexibility to meet your planning and cash flow requirements:
- Spring purchases can be made and are interest free until the last day of the month following the month of purchase, allowing you to pay some or all of your account at that time.
- Our Gold Credit Line (O.A.C) provides you with financing terms to November 30th with a competitive interest rate calculated monthly.
- Our Platinum Credit Line (O.A.C) provides improved financing terms for customers in excess of $250,000 with terms to March 31st of the following year at a competitive interest rate calculated monthly.
- The Paterson Financial Fall Purchase credit offering (O.A.C) is designed to allow customers to use the right products at the right time in their planning cycle and are due November 30th of the following year.
PREPAID CASH
Prepaid Cash is an attractive option for those with the necessary resources. By pre-paying next year’s crop inputs before December 31, you can capture opportunities to lock-in favourable pricing for the coming year. Additionally, Prepaid Cash can have tax planning benefits by putting next year’s purchases on the current year’s balance sheet.
PREPAY LOAN
The prepay loan works just like Prepaid Cash to secure product and price on any cash sales. The only difference is that it uses the Paterson Financial Credit line to finance the purchase.
DEPOSIT ON ACCOUNT
The deposit on account is a great option for customers who would like to have unallocated funds attract a favourable interest rate for future crop input purchases.
