Starting a business – particularly an agricultural based business – can be expensive and difficult. Over the past few years, the profits of Wisconsin farms have been increasing, with an overall profit increase of millions of dollars (even with inflation – for more information, look over this pdf of agricultural sales in Wisconsin from 2013: https://www.aae.wisc.edu/pubs/status/docs/status2014.faster.pdf)

To have any hope of getting an agricultural business started, it is inevitable that financial support will be needed. AgStar, a leading investor in Momentum West, is one of the larger Farm Credit Associations Nation Wide. Their local office in Rice Lake, Wisconsin, provides financial services and business tools for agricultural and rural clients across both Minnesota and Northwestern Wisconsin.
