We are proud to be 100% employee owned.

The year was 1929, the year the stock market crashed and precipitated an era of meager profits for agriculture and a generally precarious existence for many. In a year when most are trying simply to hold on to what they had achieved, a forward thinking business man saw the potential in a new idea. With the help of Bruce Russell, a Former County Agent with a background in farming, the young C.J. Claassen turned his idea into reality late that year. In November of 1929, Claassen implemented the system of farm management, accomplished efficiently and profitably, for non-resident landowners, and he offered that system through a firm he named Farmers National Company.

Farmers National Company is the largest, fastest growing and most successful farm management company in the United States, managing 5,000 farms, ranches and specialty operations across the country. Our core business is still farm management, but the company has grown and expanded its services to include a complete range of agricultural services. With the availability of management, real estate sales, appraisals, insurance and commodity marketing, FNC clients are assured of the best and most profitable management of their farm investments. Today, FNC is 100 percent employee owned. Farmers National Company is proud of its history. And we are proud to continue the history of excellent service with every client served by the company's employee owners and associates.
