Industry-Specific Challenges

Agriculture revenue is highly seasonal. Lenders may evaluate annual revenue or crop/livestock value. Lines of credit help manage seasonal cash flow.

Weather Risk

Weather affects crop yields and revenue. Lenders may consider crop insurance and risk management strategies.

High Equipment Costs

Farm equipment is expensive. Equipment financing spreads cost over time while you use equipment to generate revenue.
