Most farmers and ranchers know the feeling—you walk into the bank with everything you’ve built and still get treated like a liability. In this episode, Jonathon Haralson shares the story behind EA Capital: a lending model built for the real world of agriculture.

He talks about what it’s like to create a financial system that respects the people who feed this country. From busted bank relationships to why Empire Ag only lends to clients we already serve, this episode breaks down the how, why, and what’s next for EA Capital.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why ag lending is broken—and how we’re fixing it
• Real-world examples of EA Capital in action
• The difference between cash poor and creditworthy
• What producers should know about Fund 1 and what’s ahead
