Maria Pippidis, Jesse Ketterman, Catherine Sorenson, Laura Hendrix, Elizabeth Kiss, Melissa Rupp, Kayla Wells-Yoakum, and Lorna Wounded-Head ( 2026 )
Summary
A farm or ranch household's finances can be complex, uncertain, and stressful. While it may seem easier to have one bank account or credit card for both business and household, when they are intertwined, there are risks to the financial security of both. Risk management includes having clear, functional financial boundaries about your farm/ranch business and household so you can make informed decisions that set both on a path to sustainable growth and financial wellbeing. The goal of this Toolkit is to help you take control of the household finances in a way that will improve cashflow, support household and enterprise goals, improve credit and protect your financial identity. The Toolkit provides information, worksheets, excel spreadsheets and online resources to help you achieve financial security and wellbeing.
