Description

As we expand our ag lending curriculum here at Barret and seek to grow the knowledge base for a new generation of ag lenders, we have to understand the role of government programs and crop insurance (among a whole lot of other things!)

Matthew Farrell is the Director of Ag Services for Arthur J. Gallagher and has a great deal of insight and expertise into this area. OBBB changed a the risk profile for a lot of our farming customers. That shifts our underwriting...and it's also a good time to start educating ourselves as to what/how these programs impact our credit decisioning.
