Sustainability Financing Compeer's RegenLend pilot with EDF, SWOF and PepsiCo demonstrates a scalable, market based approach to funding conservation farming. There is opportunity to extend this model to Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin farmers to finance soil health practices and related equipment like strip till, leveraging sustainability incentives and brand partnerships.

Equipment Leasing Expansion The strip-till equipment leasing pilot with PepsiCo shows demand for upfront cost relief to adopt conservation technologies. This creates a path to broaden equipment leasing to additional sustainability focused equipment and regions, while cross selling risk management and agricultural finance products.

Strategic Partnerships Strategic partnerships with large brands such as PepsiCo and EDF illustrate how Compeer's member-owned Farm Credit financing can support brand led sustainability initiatives. Opportunities exist to recruit additional corporate partners for co financed pilots, grants and impact investments across the ag supply chain.

Regional Footprint Regional reach across Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin with more than 40 offices enables localized lending, leasing and advisory services to farmers and rural businesses. This footprint supports cross selling across loans, leases, risk management and financial planning while building deeper customer relationships in core markets.
