As a Farm Credit System director, I am writing to express my concern that FCA's recently proposed rule on

collateral evaluation will have a negative impact on the agricultural producers, agribusinesses, and other customers

we serve. The rule would slow the loan-making process and place needless cost and burden on producers without

any real benefit to the safety and soundness of Farm Credit System institutions. I respectfully ask FCA to withdraw

the rule and engage Farm Credit System representatives in a constructive dialog designed to identify an approach

to collateral evaluation requirements that is farmer friendly, recognizes modern practices, and simplifies the credit

delivery process. Thank you for your consideration.?
