The equipment need
The farm needed to replace its combine harvester to secure its harvests.
The investment far exceeded the cash it had available for self-funding.
Its income was concentrated in a few months of the year, so a level payment schedule did not fit.
The owner wanted to keep bank credit lines available to fund the growing season.

The support described in the project
Leaseworld arranged an 84-month equipment lease with a purchase option on the combine and its accessories.
The header, header transport cart and guidance equipment were included in the financing.
The schedule was seasonal, with larger payments after harvest and lighter ones the rest of the year.
A purchase option at a nominal residual value was included at the end of the contract.
Approval was obtained in time for the machine to be delivered before harvest.
The reported operational outcome
The farm renewed its harvest equipment without using its cash.
The seasonal schedule matched payments to the farm's actual receipts.
Existing bank lines remained available to finance the production cycle.
