We have non-current receivables that represent long-term customer receivable balances related to past due accounts which are not expected to be collected within the current year. The net long-term customer receivables were $22.4 million as of June 30, 2023. These long-term customer receivable balances and the corresponding allowance are included in "Other assets including long-term receivables, net" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. A portion of these long-term receivables have payment contracts. We have no reason to believe payments will not be made based upon the credit quality of these customers. Additionally, we also hold significant collateral against these customers including rights to property or other assets as a form of credit guarantee. If the customer does not pay or gives indication that they will not pay, these guarantees allow us to start legal action to block the sale of the customer’s harvest. On an ongoing basis, we continue to evaluate the credit quality of our non-current receivables using aging of receivables, collection experience and write-offs, as well as evaluating existing economic conditions, to determine if an additional allowance is necessary. The following table displays a roll forward of the allowance for credit losses related to long-term customer receivables:

Receivables Securitization Facility: FMC entered into a trade receivables securitization program, primarily impacting our Brazilian operations during the third quarter of 2022. On a revolving basis, FMC may sell certain trade receivables into the facility in exchange for cash. A portion of the total receivables sold are deferred as an asset on our condensed consolidated balance sheets representing FMC’s beneficial interest in the securitization fund. In all instances, the transferred financial assets are sold on a non-recourse basis and have met the true sale criteria under ASC Topic 860. FMC has surrendered control of the receivables and as a result they will no longer be recognized on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. FMC may be engaged to serve as a special servicer for any delinquent receivables. In that capacity, we are entitled to market rate compensation for those services. Cash receipts from the sale of trade receivables under the securitization arrangement, received at the time of sale, are classified as cash flows from operating activities. There were $67.5 million in receivables sold under the securitization program during the six months ended June 30, 2023. There were no sales under the program during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Other Receivable Factoring: In addition to the above, we may sell trade receivables on a non-recourse basis to third-party financial institutions. These sales are normally driven by specific market conditions, including, but not limited to, foreign exchange environments, customer credit management, as well as other factors where the receivables may lay. We account for these transactions as true sales and as a result they will no longer be recognized on the condensed consolidated balance sheets because the agreements transfer effective control and risk related to the receivables to the buyers. The net cash proceeds received are presented within cash provided by operating activities within our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The cost of factoring these accounts receivables is recorded as an expense within the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and has been inconsequential during each reporting period. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there was $155.0 million in non-recourse factoring. There was no non-recourse factoring during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
