Despite Falling Crop Prices, Now’s Still a Great Time for Farm Equipment Financing

As crop prices experience a notable drop, many farmers and agribusiness owners are facing tighter margins and reconsidering how they manage their capital. While this might seem like a challenging time for investment, savvy operators know that market dips can actually present an opportunity—especially when it comes to upgrading or adding essential farm equipment.

At Truecore Capital, we understand the pressures that come with fluctuating crop prices, unpredictable yields, and seasonal cash flow. That’s exactly why we offer flexible, low-cost equipment financing solutions designed to help you preserve your capital while keeping your operation running strong.

Why Financing Makes Sense Now
Instead of paying cash or accessing your available line of credit, equipment financing allows you to preserve your working capital while still being able to access the machinery you need. With options like 0% down equipment financing, you can get the tractors, combines, and other essential farm machinery without the immediate financial strain. This strategy helps maintain liquidity for operational costs, seed purchases, and unexpected expenses during a volatile market.

Benefits of Financing Your Equipment

• Preserve Your Capital: Financing rather than cash down allows you to keep cash available for everyday farm operations and emergencies.
• Flexible Payment Options: Many of our lenders offer tailored plans that match seasonal revenue cycles.
• Upgrade Your Technology: While lower crop prices may be a temporary challenge, modern and efficient equipment can improve productivity and long-term profitability.
• Tax Advantages: Financing equipment can provide business tax benefits at the end of the year, compared to purchasing in cash upfront. Section 179 of the IRS tax code allows businesses to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment or vehicles financed during the tax year – instead of depreciating the asset over several years, businesses can deduct up to 100% of the cost immediately, within the tax year.
• 0% Down Options: Our 0% down financing programs are created with the goal of reducing your upfront expenses while maximizing your ability to invest in essential machinery. This will ultimately allow you to:
  • – Acquire high-quality equipment without straining cash reserves.
  • – Avoid dipping into existing lines of credit or savings.
  • – Space out your payments based on your grow cycle, reducing your financial stress while still adding essential equipment – before market conditions change.

Position Your Farm for the Future
Market dips (like we’re experiencing in crop prices) don’t last forever – and when prices rebound, having efficient, reliable equipment can help you maximize that upside. By financing your equipment today, you can position your farm to operate more efficiently and profitably in the seasons ahead.
