Livestock Feeding Program

An innovative alternative to conventional financing of livestock raising!

Within the Livestock Feeding Program, Equity Livestock Credit Corporation buys and retains ownership of livestock placed with a feeder-producer. The feeder provides management, feed, equipment, facilities and labor to care for and raise the livestock. In turn, the feeder has no cash outlay in the livestock. At the completion of the feeding program, the producer receives the gross proceeds of the sale of the livestock, less amounts due Equity Livestock Credit Corporation.
