About the role
This interview focuses on analysing loans for farms and agricultural businesses whose income and costs may be seasonal. The panel is looking for careful cash flow reasoning, awareness of production and market risks, useful field verification and the integrity to distinguish evidence from assumptions.
How to prepare
- Practise building a monthly farm cash flow that separates production spending, harvest, sales and repayment timing.
- Review how yield, selling price, input cost, mortality, spoilage and delayed payment can affect repayment capacity.
- Prepare a clear checklist for a farm or agribusiness verification visit.
- Practise explaining a credit recommendation in plain language, including conditions and unresolved gaps.
- Review spreadsheet formulas for totals, ratios, sensitivities and simple repayment schedules.
Common mistakes
- Using optimistic yield and price assumptions without testing a weaker outcome.
- Focusing on collateral while ignoring whether farm cash flow can repay the loan.
- Accepting borrower figures without checking records, market information or field evidence.
- Hiding missing information instead of stating how it affects the recommendation.
