Agricultural Development Credit Disbursements in Colombia, 2020-Present

Disbursement details for agricultural development credit from 2020 onward, hosted on Colombia's open data portal. The data includes loan values, interest rates, beneficiary characteristics, and financial inclusion indicators for producers accessing credit under FINAGRO conditions. Columns such as `tipo_productor`, `valor_credito`, and `sexo` provide insights into the recipients and terms of these loans.

Use Cases

• Analyze loan distribution by producer type (`tipo_productor`) and gender (`sexo`) to assess financial inclusion.
• Model the relationship between loan value (`valor_credito`), subsidy amount (`valor_subsidio`), and loan purpose (`cod_destino`).
• Forecast credit uptake trends over time using the loan date (`fecha_credito`) and program name (`nombre_programa`).
• Cluster beneficiaries by production chain (`cadena`, `eslabon_cadena`) and loan characteristics (`plazo`, `tasa_indexacion`).

Strengths

• Includes 27 distinct columns covering loan terms, beneficiary demographics, and program details.
• Data is updated regularly, with a last recorded update timestamp of 2026-05-18 19:24:57.
