Client Comment(s):
"Thank you for your prompt response regarding the farm operations. Please continue with your helpful updated information. Keeping informed is valuable."
"Thanks for taking the time to show us the Colorado farm last week. It is good to know that the farm is in capable hands and is being managed so well. We will continue to pray for rain. Keep up the good work."
"We were able to drive around the farm this year on our vacation. I am very pleased with the condition of the farm. The crops look terrific and the fallow fields are being well maintained. You have sure done a good job of hiring quality farmers."
Success Story:
We accepted the challenge to manage a large irrigated farm and ranch in western Nebraska that had been previously managed by a bank trust department. The owner was completly dissatisfied with the bank's service, lease arrangement, and communication. The tenant had essentially written his own lease on his own terms. In a period of 12 months we clarified lease terms, accounted for all inventories and sales, while improving relations with the current farmer. The owner is estatic with the communication and reporting. Soil sampling and improvements to irrigation systems have allowed the farming operation to meet and exceed crop yield goals while maintaining budget goals. The installation of a grazing plan has improved the overall condition of pastures and will allow us to repair damaged areas due to previous over grazing.
The recovery of this farm happend much faster than expected and is due to FNC "rolling up our sleeves" to get the job done along with the teamwork and cooperation of the current operator.
The farm exceeded the owner's anticipated return goals in the first year. With FNC as the management agent, we have been able to improve tenant relations while moving to more progressive farming practices which in turn have preserved ranch conditions and improved farm production.
Year started with FNC: 2000
