Why Do We Exist?
Farmers Capital connects like-minded investors in the agricultural space who are interested in diversifying into commercial real estate. As equity partners in tangible assets, our investors establish secure and hands-off income streams and portfolio diversification resistant to the often volatile, unpredictable economic and environmental conditions that affect their core business. We believe hard-earned farm profits should create additional financial security rather than additional stress caused by the volatile stock market, uncertain commodity prices, government regulations, and global trade fluctuations.
Financial stress is alleviated when a steady, passive income stream is securely in place, enabling the farmer-investor to meet the inevitable challenges of agricultural life and livelihood.
Farmers Capital invests in sound, straightforward real estate operated by highly competent folks that generate consistent returns over time. Our strategy allows investors to take advantage of actual, compounded returns while benefiting from all of the financial advantages of United States real estate. We sleep easy knowing our investor capital is secured with tangible assets, straightforward business plans, and competent operators.

Integrity is our foundational principle. Coupled with our commitment to transparency, this "moral compass" guides our decision-making, problem-solving, and pledge to deliver world-class service to our clients in the agricultural community.

How We Make It Happen
Much like a farmer institutes systems that are integral to a successful yield each season – everything from what to plant and when, how to ensure optimal growing conditions, and when to harvest, Farmers Capital has a strategic plan and the tactical measures to support that plan, keeping it responsive as market conditions change and new opportunities emerge.
With deep subject matter expertise – and first-hand experience – in both the financial and agricultural sectors, we competently exercise due diligence on deals and operators across the country, identify intelligent investment opportunities, and confidently manage and monitor the performance of our assets.
Meet Founder and CEO, Casey Silveria
Casey Silveria’s ties to the agricultural community run deep. In fact, one might say that farming is embedded in his DNA. He grew up on a family farm in western Caldwell, Idaho where his dad grew corn, wheat, alfalfa seed, and varietal beans.
He recalls the sage wisdom his parents instilled in him about using one’s head, not only relying on one’s strong back, to thrive and prosper. Through the pursuit of his higher education – earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Finance and a Master’s Degree in Business Administration – Casey laid the foundation for his professional life.
With ten years of high-level experience in the business world and seven years of personal real estate investing under his belt, Casey’s analytic mind and strategic thinking continually fueled a determination to see his kindred spirits in the farming community gain access to wealth-generating opportunities that seemed elusive and available only to the well connected.
The COVID lockdown would turn out to be the transformative experience that brought into stark focus the reality of just how much control government institutions, companies, and other outside forces had over his financial future and all the freedoms that go with it.
In creating Farmers Capital Group, Casey has acted on his calling and commitment to educating other agricultural professionals on how to invest their hard-earned capital into income-producing assets. As limited partners, they gain access to wealth-building opportunities while FCG executes risk-adjusted business plans to deliver a first-class investor experience.
Casey’s indomitable spirit, affable personality, energy, and experience virtually guarantee a bright future for Farmers Capital Group and those who join him on the journey to prosperity. He welcomes you to this venture with the following words – “As a farmer's son, I understand the difficulty and stress of putting hard-earned profits into investment vehicles we can't rely on. I created Farmers Capital Group to turn the tables on Wall Street".
