\u201cWhen you borrow from Capital Farm Credit, you become one of our owners,\u201d said Ben Novosad, chief executive officer. \u201cThat means when our borrower-owned cooperative has earnings, they get their share through our cooperative returns program.

As a borrower-owned cooperative, our members are also our owners. When Capital Farm Credit is successful, our members are successful.\u00a0 We\u2019re in this together with our members, and together we\u2019re better.<\/p>\n
