For the purpose of providing moneys to assist lenders in providing moneys to finance agricultural enterprises, the authority, in addition to the powers otherwise granted by law, has the power and is hereby authorized to issue from time to time negotiable bonds and notes of the authority.
The proceeds of such bonds and notes may be applied by the authority to the making of loans to or deposits with lenders or the purchase of loans made by lenders as set forth in § 4-31-203.
Bonds or notes issued pursuant to this section shall not be issued and sold as part of an issue of bonds or notes of the authority issued pursuant to any other provision of this chapter or other law.
The authority has the power, and is hereby authorized, to issue from time to time renewal notes, and bonds to pay notes issued in anticipation of such bonds, and, whenever it deems refunding expedient, to refund any bonds by the issuance of refunding bonds whether the bonds to be refunded have or have not matured, and to issue bonds partly to refund bonds then outstanding and partly for any other authorized purpose.
Such refunding bonds and renewal notes may be issued without further authorization, such issuance being deemed authorized by the law authorizing the bonds and notes to be renewed, paid or refunded.
The refunding bonds shall be sold and the proceeds applied to the purchase, redemption or payment of the bonds to be refunded.
Each issue of its notes or bonds issued pursuant to this section shall be limited special obligations of the authority payable solely from and secured by amounts derived by the authority from loans purchased with the proceeds of such bonds or notes, payments made by lenders pursuant to loan agreements with such lenders, or proceeds derived from the certificates of deposit or other obligations of lenders purchased from bond proceeds.
The bonds may be additionally secured by a pledge of any grant, contribution or guarantee from the federal government or any corporation, association, institution or person or a pledge of any money, income or revenue of the authority from any source.
The authority shall not issue bonds and notes under this part in an aggregate principal amount at any one (1) time outstanding exceeding thirty million dollars ($30,000,000), excluding bonds or notes for the payment or redemption of which there has been or will be set aside and held in trust either moneys or direct and general obligations of, or obligations guaranteed by, the United States, or obligations secured by such obligations, or any combination thereof, that are or will be sufficient to pay when due the principal or applicable redemption price and all accrued interest thereon and, if such bonds or notes are to be redeemed, for which notice of redemption has been given or satisfactory provision has been made for the giving of such notice.
