Farm Credit Association

A farm credit association is a member-owned cooperative that offers resources to rural communities and farmers. They’re part of the national Farm Credit System, which supports the financial needs of agricultural workers. These associations provide loans, leases, insurance, and other financial products to support domestic agriculture. An elected board of directors runs the farm credit association and works with staff who manage the day-to-day operations, cash flow, and more.
