AgroKredit Plus
A Non-Profit Micro-Credit Agency Serving the Rural Agricultural Communities of Southern Kyrgyzstan
Foundation & Motives Behind the Creation of AgroKredit Plus (AK+)
Environment that Motivated the Creation of AK+– Frustration of TES Centre personnel when farmer/clients were unable to fully
utilize their training due to inability to afford minimal amounts of ag inputs. This was compounded by the knowledge that these minimal investments had huge payback multiples when combined with training and extension services.
– In reality, no sources of financing existed for small balance (< USD$500), uncollateralized, short-term loans to small farmers.
– Abundance of low quality inputs, provided by transient merchants of questionable ethics, made the purchase of ag inputs by individual small farmers a risky proposition that impacted their entire operation.
– Kyrgyzstan is a rural-based society where 40-60% of the population in is directly involved with agricultural production. Thus, improving the incomes of small farmers/producers has an enormous “multiplier effect” on the community as a whole.
AK+ was founded by the AK+ was founded by the ТТES Centre (Technical Extension Services ES Centre (Technical Extension Services Centre) in March ofCentre) in March of 2005 2005. TES is an Osh based organization providing . TES is an Osh based organization providing agricultural training and extension services to individual farmers.agricultural training and extension services to individual farmers.
Organizational Strategies & Objectives
– Leverage Pre-Existing Knowledge• Through working with their clients, the extension service agents have valuable
knowledge regarding the personal character of the farmers and the viability of their plans. These items, willingness and ability to repay, form the foundation of any sound lending decisions. AK+ utilizes this as a core input to its lending process.
– Ensure Use of Proceeds for Intended Purpose and Quality of Inputs• Farmers purchase inputs from recognized (AAK) vendors.• Loan payments disbursed directly to vendors.• Purchases planned and reviewed by extension agents for conformance to
growing plan.– Focus on Social Group Lending
• Reduces risk of non-payment through group pressure. Important given non-collateralized and concentrated (geographic and industry) nature of lending.
• Creates a larger orders for inputs and thus possibilities for quantity discounts.• Reduces paperwork.
– Strive for Sustainability of Clients and Lender• Minimize overhead costs.• Charge rates that do not subsidize the farmer and that allow the lending
organization long-term viability.

For Potential Donors
• AK+ provides segregated and detailed reporting related to the application of funds received.• AK+ has experience working with donors to design and implement lending programs.
Programs can be targeted based upon characteristics such as:• Gender• Region• Ag Sector/Crop Type• Purpose (e.g. specific type of equipment)
• AK+ has a preference to undertake programs consistent with its mission and that help build its capabilities and ability to be self-sustainable. Thus, preference is given to programs that:
• Target the rural, agricultural community• Do not subsidize the recipient in a way that creates long-term economic dependence on
subsidized activities.• Allow AK+ to cover its related operational costs.• Build AK+ capital base as to grow its funds available for lending in a consistent manner.
This allows AK+ to:• Be a consistent provider of funds to its client community• Better manage its operations by avoiding excessive expansion and contraction of
activities and staff.• Since it is organized as a public foundation, capital of the organization must be used
consistently with its mission. In the event of liquidation, capital would be transferred to another public foundation that served a similar purpose.
AK+ welcomes the opportunity to work with donors who share our commitment to improve the lives of farmers and rural communities.
Example Programs
AK+ is very open to discussing custom designed programs that serve the specific objectives of donors. Some example of types of programs we have executed are described below.
1. Loan to Grant: General• Funds provided to AK+ for re-lending consistent with it mission• At end of specified period, all or part of funds convert to AK+
2. Loan to Grant: Specific• Funds provided to AK+ for re-lending consistent with donor specified objectives and
benchmarks• At end of specified period, all or part of funds convert to AK+ based upon AK+
meeting donor’s objectives and benchmarks3. Donations/Grants: Specified and General
• As earlier mentioned, donors receive full reporting on activities. Reporting requirements are defined upfront as to ensure donor needs.
• In the case of loans to AK+, an important consideration is our ability to cover operational costs associated with the related lending activity. Thus, these programs normally make use low interest rates, management fees or some combination thereof in order to achieve this objective. Again, AK+ can be very flexible in the design of a specific program.
