Opis

"The history of rural economy, alike in Europe, America and India, has no lesson more distinct than this that agriculturists must and will borrow. This necessity is due to the fact that an agriculturist's capital is locked up in his land and stock, and must be temporarily mobilized, hence credit is neither necessarily objectionable nor is borrowing necessarily a sign of weakness". -Sir F.A.Nicholson.
