Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rural Credit in Germany
The widespread interest in the subject of a better system of rural credit in America has centered attention on the European countries in which successful systems are now in operation. Germany was not only the first to develop a rural credit system but at the present time has the most extensive and highly developed system. The following brief description of the existing institutions that furnish both real and personal credit to German farmers is based upon personal investigation and study while a student at the University of Halle in 1911-12. The report embodies but the merest outline and does not go into the details of the organization or operation of any one of the institutions. The attempt has been made, rather, to give a general sur vey of the institutions that have been developed to furnish credit to German agriculture and to show their particular field of operation and their relative importance.
