Agriculture has been a major part of Citizens State Bank's success for more than a century, and we're continuing that tradition with innovative lending and credit opportunities to help you maximize the efficiency and profitability of your farm.
Beginning Farmer Loans
The Iowa Beginning Farmer Loan Program (BFLP), administered by the Iowa Agricultural Development Authority (IADA) has been helping new farmers acquire agricultural property since 1981.
The AG lending experts at Citizens State Bank can help you determine if a Beginning Farmer Loan is right for you and walk you through the loan application process — and our assistance doesn't end there. We'll also work with you to create a detailed financial and cash flow analysis to manage the beginning stages of your new farming operation.
