About Us
Save money, get more options and work with a lender who knows rural living.
Why Farm Credit?
Work with rural lending experts who understand your needs and care about the same things you do.
Rural lending expertise
Buying and managing rural land, purchasing a home or running a farm operation are all challenging and significant investments. It helps to have a lender who understands rural living. At Farm Credit, our rural lending experts have the knowledge necessary to make your financing easier.
Loans that match your needs
One-size lending doesn't fit all. Not only do we offer a variety of interest rates, terms and repayment options, your lender can also work with you to lower your rate with no hassle and no costly refinance.
Extra money in your pocket
As a lending cooperative, Farm Credit refunds excess profits to our members. With over $96 million in cooperative refunds to date, your cost of borrowing can be even lower than your already-competitive interest rate.
Investment in our community
Farm Credit cares about the same thing you do and makes meaningful investments in our rural and agricultural communities. We educate communities about the importance of agriculture, host programs for landowners and farmers of all tenure and statuses and encourage youth pursuing careers in agriculture.
Local service
The vast majority of our loans are serviced right here at home, allowing you to build relationships with a lender that knows you by name and truly understands your needs.
