TS Bank In-House Ag Loan Options 

Our agricultural clients use various types of ag loans for the following reasons:

Livestock

Seasons and markets change quickly. Let us help streamline your commercial or pure-bred livestock (cattle, swine, poultry, equine, etc.) operation with a livestock loan that suits your cash flow needs.

Equipment

When you're ready to purchase or upgrade equipment (grain bins, combines, tractors, trailers, semis, etc.), we're ready to discuss your financing options. No matter what you raise, we have the options to finance the equipment that is critical to your success.

Ag Line of Credit

Be prepared with a ready line of credit for your farm's needs such as seed, chemical, fertilizer, cash rent or other inputs. Flexible, short-term, asset-based financing can help you manage your cash flow. Have readily available financing for when you need it and only use what you need.

Ag Real Estate Loan

Good farm ground can be hard to come by. Purchase or refinance your farm property with a local, community-minded bank, where processing and decision-making is kept local. Our lenders are familiar with the local real estate market and will work with you to provide financing options that meet your needs. We finance crop and pastureland, as well as buildings or structures necessary to the success and development of your operation. Ag real estate loans are also utilized to purchase Morton® buildings, barns and grain bins.
