Livestock Loans

Raising livestock requires smart financing that works with the seasonal nature of agriculture. Our livestock loans are structured to align with your sales cycle—not monthly payments. Use financing to purchase, feed, care for, or refinance livestock with confidence.

Poultry Loans

Poultry operations require significant upfront investment, from building houses to acquiring birds and securing feed. Our poultry loans help you get the capital needed to establish, expand, or maintain your poultry business while keeping cash flow steady.

Operating Line of Credit Explained

A farm operating loan provides the working capital needed for seasonal and recurring agricultural expenses. Rather than taking out a fixed loan amount, you can draw funds as needed and repay over time, restoring access for future use. This allows you to only pay interest on the amount borrowed, making it a cost-effective financing solution. With an operating loan, you can finance livestock purchases and feed, seed and fertilizer, cash rent for farmland, and labor or payroll expenses.
