Borrowing base + collateral operations

Know what your lender sees before they ask.

AgBasis turns scattered agricultural collateral data into a controlled monthly close, a reproducible borrowing base, and a lender-ready evidence package.

  • Lender-specific eligibility and advance rules
  • Traceable calculations and source evidence
  • Multi-entity, multi-facility collateral
  • Locked month-end certification snapshots

Built for agricultural credit

Financial software for the collateral conversation—not another farm dashboard.

Every line

can carry source, rule, eligibility, and calculation provenance.

One close

creates the operator view and the lender-ready certificate package.

Monthly close

A borrowing base should not be a monthly scavenger hunt.

The hard part is rarely the final spreadsheet. It is assembling current source data, applying the right rules, proving what is eligible, and answering the follow-up questions. AgBasis makes that the workflow itself.

01

Bring the month together

Pull balances, receivables, inventory, herd counts, feed, crops, and other collateral into one close workflow.

02

Apply the actual credit rules

Advance rates, eligibility windows, entity assignments, caps, exclusions, and lender-specific terms are calculated consistently.

03

Resolve exceptions before they travel

See missing support, stale data, tie-out differences, and ineligible items before a lender packet is generated.

04

Lock the close and send the evidence

Produce a lender-ready borrowing base with source support, calculation trace, and a reproducible month-end snapshot.

Platform

The controls a serious borrowing-base process needs.

AgBasis is designed around credit agreements, collateral evidence, repeatable month-end work, and the questions a lender will ask next.

Lender-specific rules

Model the credit agreement you actually have instead of forcing every facility into one generic formula.

Multi-entity collateral

Keep borrowers, facilities, collateral ownership, intercompany activity, and assignments explicit.

Evidence behind every number

Trace a certificate line back to its source, eligibility test, advance rate, and calculation path.

Repeatable monthly close

Turn a spreadsheet scramble into the same controlled sequence every month, with clear ownership and status.

Locked, reproducible snapshots

A completed close stays tied to the data and rule version used when it was certified.

Lender-ready output

Present availability, collateral, exceptions, supporting schedules, and provenance in a format built for credit review.

For credit review

The number is only useful if you can defend it.

AgBasis keeps the certificate, supporting schedules, rule logic, exceptions, and source provenance together so lender questions can be answered from the same record that produced the number.

  • Eligibility windows and exclusions are explicit
  • Collateral cannot silently belong to two facilities
  • Completed runs remain tied to their rule and data versions
  • Exceptions are visible before certification, not after
