Operating Loans

Operating loans allow farmers the flexibility to manage their businesses or improve their real estate investments.

Our farm operating loans and lines of credit can help you manage the day-to-day expenses so your business can focus on the future. An operating loan or revolving line of credit can provide much-needed liquidity. Whether it’s used for repairs, feed or seed, more cash on hand can help keep your operation running smoothly.

Crop Loans

We offer short-term financing that covers a seasonal crop cycle of expenses.

That may include pre-harvest and harvest overhead expenses such as debt service, fixed capital, living expenses and taxes.

Livestock

We provide cow and calf loans, herd loans, and stocker loans.

Cow/calf loans are for funding operating needs, breeding bulls, or replacement heifers; herd loans are typically used for the purchase of cattle, quota, equipment, and capital improvements; and stocker loans are short-term financing for the purchase, feed, maintenance and care of stocker cattle. In addition, we have feed and farming credit lines as well as prepaid feed lines so our customers can purchase feed for year-end tax planning purposes.
