How We Built This: AgDirect®

On this episode of Strengthen Your Roots, we host Julie Krause and Greg Roberg - leaders from our AgDirect® team. They tell us how AgDirect started as an idea back in 1997 to a nearly $3 billion dollar business today.

“There was discussion of what the vision of AgDirect was going to be and if it was sustainable. Out of “firefly”, the #1 idea was to expand AgDirect and expand it within the Farm Credit system. And that will lead to other things, which we’ve seen: Rural 1st®. FarmLend®. And more.” -Greg Roberg
