Farm Credit Banks

Farm Credit Banks are specialized financial institutions that provide funding and credit services to rural communities, agricultural businesses, and farm operators. They serve as the central lending authorities within the Farm Credit System, offering long-term loans, credit, and financial solutions to support agricultural growth and rural development. These banks raise funds by issuing bonds and then distribute this capital through a network of local cooperative associations, ensuring farmers and rural businesses have access to reliable financial resources tailored to their unique needs.
