Southwest Georgia Farm Credit, an AgFirst facility in Bainbridge, Georgia

AgFirst, part of the US Farm Credit System, serves as a wholesale lender and business-service provider to a network of local farm credit associations in 15 southern and eastern states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico.[1][2] It was formed in 1995 by the merger of the Farm Credit Bank of Baltimore and the Farm Credit Bank of Columbia.[3] The lender is cooperatively owned by 16 local associations.[4] These associations, operating as Farm Credit and Ag Credit associations, provide real estate and production financing to about 80,000 farmers, agribusinesses, and rural homeowners.[5]

AgFirst is headquartered in Columbia, South Carolina in the former Bank of America Plaza.[6]
