8:45–9:45 am Your Bank’s Role in Creating the Total Town Makeover | Andrew McCrea, Maysville MO
Ag and rural communities sit at a unique crossroads. Farm income has risen with increased commodity prices and 2020
government program payments. Ag land and machinery prices are growing at a fast pace. Yet, the story for non-ag businesses
that support farmers in rural communities may not be the same. Smaller towns supporting agriculture may be struggling to
keep small businesses open, maintain quality schools, and provide a place that younger people want to work and establish
home and families. Learn how your bank can be a key catalyst that keep small towns surviving and thriving.
