Play Video

Agricultural lenders have long offered traditional bank financing products, including lines of credit and real estate lending. However, directors should question where their institution may have gaps in its product suite and whether the bank is meeting clients on their terms, which may include a digital offering, says Scott Jarck, vice president and relationship manager with Agri-Access. Bankers should also consider whether it makes sense to add to their ag lending team or partner with a fintech on a digital solution. 

Topics discussed include: 

  • Traditional Financing
  • Digital Lending 
  • Key Performance Metrics
