Cultivate: Flexible Farm Loans to support growth potential on beef farms

As more farmers enter dairy-beef systems and view it as a viable business, financial backing to invest in herd quality and relevant infrastructure is critical. Luckily, that’s exactly what Cultivate offer with flexible loan repayments that are tailored to farmer’s needs.

 Assisting farm developments at every chance

As Irish dairy-beef farmers navigate rising input costs and market fluctuations, People First Credit Union provides financial loans which are tailored to support sustainable growth. With flexible repayment options and competitive interest rates, our loans help farmers invest in housing, feed systems, herd expansion, and general farm improvements. Cultivate ensures farmers can access the capital they need to improve productivity and profitability while managing cash flow effectively. Backed by local expertise and a commitment to rural communities, People First Credit Union Cultivate Loans offer a farmer-first approach to financing, helping Irish beef farmers build a more resilient future.

Speaking on the challenges facing farmers, from People First Credit Union, Belinda Gyves:

The Cultivate team here in People First Credit Union understand the need for farmers to invest in herd quality and infrastructure. We work with farmers in County Laois to provide them with finance needed to carry out necessary works. Cultivate can provide loans to contribute to the cost of investing in these essential elements of farming.”

Cultivate is the collaborative credit union finance lending platform for farmers providing short to medium term loans. Participating credit unions work closely with farmer members to meet their changing needs.
