What is a Barter Agreement?

A barter agreement is a legal contract that outlines the terms of trade between parties. This could be a trade of goods, services, products, or similar. Barter agreements are often used in place of exchanging cash or monetary payments. This agreement may also be called an "exchange of services" agreement.

An example of bartering could be a farmer who produces soybeans may enter into a barter agreement with a farmer who produces fertilizer, both agreeing to exchange amounts of their product with each other for mutual benefit. Barter agreements cannot work with land but exclusively involve exchanges of goods and services between parties.

(C) The Parties may have common customers and in light of this fact they wish to agree that Cargill, upon request by and consent of its customers, may transfer to Mosaic all or part of the prepayment agreed with such farmers for the purchase of their soybeans, in order to pay the debts these farmers may have with Mosaic;

 

The Parties hereby execute this agreement, which will be governed by the following clauses and conditions.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch.
