Intro to the Farmer-Landowner Match Program and How to Finance Farming

The evening will begin with a presentation on the Farmer-Landowner Match Program and how participants can use this program to accomplish their leasing goals. Then service providers from the Farm Service Agency and Farm Credit East will discuss several USDA programs designed to help farmers begin or grow their farm operations as well as financing options through other loan providers. Farmers will join the program to discuss their own experiences with financing their farm businesses.
