Understanding the unique challenges and opportunities of the farming industry, we offer tailored financing solutions to meet the diverse needs of modern farmers. Our ag loans are designed to provide the financial backing necessary for a wide range of agricultural pursuits, whether you're expanding your farm operations, investing in new technology, or managing seasonal cash flow.
With a First Bank ag loan, you'll benefit from competitive interest rates, flexible repayment terms, and a team of experts with a deep understanding of agricultural financing. We are dedicated to working closely with you to understand your specific needs, ensuring that our financing solutions align perfectly with your farm's goals and potential. We recognize the importance of sustainable farming practices and are here to support your efforts in maintaining and growing a successful operation.
Are you considering expanding or do you have an opportunity to purchase that farm you have been hoping to purchase? Are you considering new buildings, irrigation system, or improvements to your grain system? Our many financing options can provide the solution to these decisions.
Cash flow is critically important to a farm's profitability. If you want to ensure that you are ready to take advantage of supplier discounts, avoid finance account charges, or bridge the gap of cash flow needs while you market commodities, then an Operating Line of Credit could be a great tool for your farming operation.
Don’t let outdated equipment slow you down. Compare cash discounts from manufactures versus their financing options, when considering how to finance equipment. Financing with First Bank may provide a cash discount on your purchase. From Trucks, Trailers, tractors, planters, sprayers, or other equipment, let First Bank help you upgrade your farm's major equipment needs.
Conveniently keep your personal and farm expenses separate with a Business Credit Card. It can be a quick solution for temporary cash flow gaps, too.
