Getting started on your own in farming requires capital, and that can be a challenge. The Beginning Farmer Loan Programs through Shelby County State Bank enable beginning farmers to purchase farmland with the advantage of low interest rates.
A beginning farmer can participate in this and other Iowa Agricultural Development Division (IADD) programs through SCSB, as long as the applicant and the project meet guidelines.
Loan Participation Program
The Loan Participation Program assists low-income farmers to secure loans and make down payments. IADD participation can be used to supplement the borrower’s down payment, helping a farmer secure a loan more readily.
Beginning Farmer Tax Credit Program
This program allows agricultural asset owners to earn tax credits for leasing their land, equipment and/or breeding livestock to beginning farmers.
Beginning Farmer Custom Farming Tax Credit Program
This tax credit program offers a tax credit to anyone hiring a beginning farmer to do agricultural contract work for the production of crops or livestock.
More information is available at Iowa Finance Authority or by contacting a SCSB Loan Officer at Shelby County State Bank.
