In agriculture, growing crops or raising animals is just the first step to success. Agriculture requires understanding business concepts as well. On this page we have tools to help.
In the business plan section, you will find business plan templates designed for farms and ranches. AgTools is free software that helps you with crop planning, financing options and crop lease agreements.
Our funding information includes loans for agriculture. You should also look in our regular Funding section of the Tools for USDA rural loan opportunities.
In the Management section, you will find tools to analyze and reduce farm hazards, manage your farm records and manage your finances.
The disaster section contains disaster relief programs for farms as well as information on farm security - to protect farms from bio-terrorism and disease.
If you are getting ready to retire, or are taking over a family farm, look at the AgTransitions tool in the Other category in the right panel.
