The Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation, commonly known as Farmer Mac, is a stockholder-owned government-sponsored enterprise created by Congress to broaden the availability of long-term credit for farmers, ranchers, rural homeowners, businesses, and communities. It fulfills this role by supporting a secondary market for qualified agricultural mortgage loans, rural housing loans, and rural utilities loans to cooperative borrowers, as well as the guaranteed portions of USDA-backed rural development loans. Through this market, Farmer Mac provides participants with a more efficient and competitive mechanism to offer eligible loans within rural sectors.

Based in Washington, D.C., the organization is a mid-sized financial services firm with a workforce described as hundreds. A notable recent development is the March 2025 launch of the Farmer Mac Farmland Price Index, developed in partnership with AcreValue, to track farmland value trends.
