FARM MANAGEMENT  

 

Professional Farm Management Services are available through the Trust Department of Scott State Bank. The program is tailored to landowners who are not involved in the hands-on farming operation. We serve as farm asset managers and represent landowners to help them optimize the returns from their farm. Our approach to farm management emphasizes stewardship, production, marketing, accounting and communication. 

 

When you choose our farm management team, we treat your farm as we would our own. Each decision is made with your best interests in mind and we are available for consultation at your discretion. We understand every farm operation is unique and customize our program to suit your expectations. 

 

Our experienced management and support team has over 60 years of farm operations, farm management and ag finance backgrounds. Steve Pflum, our farm manager, is a graduate of the University of Illinois College of Agriculture and a member of the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers. With first hand farming experience and excellent knowledge in seed, fertilizer, chemical selection and grain marketing, our management team can help you achieve your ownership and investment goals.
