OMAHA, NEBRASKA – Farm Credit Services of America (FCSAmerica), a customer-owned financial cooperative serving more than 50,000 farmers and ranchers in a four-state area, announced financial results for the second quarter of 2017.
Net income for the first two quarters rose nearly 10 percent to $237.6 million, primarily driven by lower provision for credit losses and increased income from loan growth and non-interest income, partially offset by increased operating expenses.
