Capital Farm Credit president and CEO Jeff Norte said: aEURoeThere are headwinds in the insurance marketplace right now, after several back-to-back years of losses in the Plains. This environment offers us an opportunity to increase our footprint in this important agricultural region, where insurance providers are less willing to offer coverage. It also allows us to work with our Approved Insurance Providers to offer coverage to the Plains as we give them access to the remainder of the state. CFC has an attractive footprint across Texas.aEURA
aEURoeThis is an exciting week, as we are adding new team members to our family and expanding our insurance portfolio. Acquiring these two agencies will help combine forces to expand the reach and influence needed to continue serving customers in the Plains Region.aEURA
CFC has been providing crop and livestock insurance for more than 10 years and has recently been working on improving its lending practices and cultivating new agricultural production loan customers, alongside growing its crop insurance sales.A
