You Can Make a Difference in the Future of Agriculture

At Farm Credit of Florida, one thing that truly sets us apart is our cooperative structure. This unique model is more than just a business approach; it is the foundation of your relationship with us.

As a member, you are not just a customer; you are an owner. Your Association is governed by a Board of Directors made up of members from our own community. This means your voice matters, and you have the power to help shape the future of agriculture in Florida.

Why Your Participation Matters

Our cooperative structure thrives because of engaged members like you. By recommending potential nominees for our Board of Directors or our Nominating Committee, you help ensure strong leadership and representation for our industry.

Our Directors and Nominating Committee members are not only participants in governance; they are local leaders who understand the challenges and opportunities in agriculture. So, we ask: Who do you want to lead your Association?

How the Process Works

• Your recommendations will be shared with our Nominating Committee, which is made up of stockholders within our chartered territory.
• The Committee will evaluate, identify, and nominate candidates for the upcoming election.
• The Board of Directors provides governance and oversight to the Association, ensuring we stay true to our mission.

Directors are compensated for attending regular board meetings and reimbursed for travel expenses.

What We Are Looking For

If you know someone who would be a great fit or if you are interested yourself, here are the key qualifications for a director position:

• Strong management skills
• A desire to improve, contribute, and serve our industry
• A passion for agriculture
• An understanding of the agricultural industry and the territory we serve
