C Correct answer
Explanation

Factor payments are payments made to the factors of production (land, labor, capital, entrepreneurship) for their productive services. Interest paid to a bank for a crop loan is payment for capital, hence a factor payment. The other options (tractor, electricity, tools) are intermediate consumption expenditures, not factor payments.
