Northern Cal Farm Credit Board & Governance


Board and Governance

Northern California Farm Credit FLCA & PCA are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Northern California Farm Credit, ACA. The Northern California Farm Credit board consists of eight members: seven are elected by Northern California Farm Credit members and one is appointed by the board. Directors are responsible for representing the best interests of the organization and its borrowers.

Customers can impact the business by electing the board of directors who set policy.

Northern California Farm Credit is comprised of two organizations. The Federal Land Bank Association, FLCA offers long-term mortgage loans and the Production Credit Association offers short-term commercial loans to farmers, ranchers and agribusinesses.

The board meets each month to review operating results. Loan-making decisions are solely the responsibility of management and the lending staff, and board reports typically do not contain specific member names or financial information.
