Supporting Your Financial Success

Turn to River Valley Cooperative for financing options needed to achieve your farm’s growth objectives.

OPTIMIZE YOUR PRODUCTION PLANS

Sometimes the best plan for profitable growth must be foregone because it doesn’t have the financial backing to make it reality. Ultimately, dollars can be left on the table as a result.  

River Valley Cooperative can help relieve financial constraints and support your plans for success with competitive financing options. We work with several financing partners, including CFA and John Deere Financial, and we often pair their offerings with programs from leading input providers, such as Bayer, BASF, Corteva, Purina and others.  

We understand the importance of securing the right products for your operation, and we are here to act as your trusted advisor to put together a financing option that works for you.

Quality inputs are within your reach when you finance with any of our programs through CFA® and River Valley Cooperative. As an agricultural retailer, we understand the importance of securing the right products for your operation, which is why we are dedicated to acting as your trusted advisor.

Use River Valley Cooperative’s financing program to finance your seed, fertilizer, and crop protection purchases and receive financing on all inputs purchased. This financing program is designed with customers in mind to free-up operating cash, lock-in crop input purchases, and pay after harvest. These programs are designed to give you a cash flow advantage season after season.


JOHN DEERE FINANCIAL

John Deere has paired with several national brands to offer special promotional programs to provide additional purchasing power and extended payment terms.  

The John Deere Financial Multi-Use account can be used at John Deere dealerships for equipment and parts, but also at River Valley Cooperative for inputs. The goal is to review your cash flow needs, meet these needs with financing programs at rates as low as 0%, and align payments for when income sources come in.
