Jason Montgomery is a cattle farmer in the Tyner community of Jackson County who farms approximately 80-acres which he owns.  On the farm Mr. Montgomery keeps 20-50 head of cattle.  He breeds some or buys cow/calf pairs or calves.  His goal right now is not so much to grow the herd but to improve the farm in preparation to being able to handle more cows.  In order to do this, he needs to make improvements to his barn, upgrade his equipment storage building and his hay shed, extend and improve some fencing for more pasture, and make soil enhancements.  The $7,500 SOAR Farm Loan will help him accomplish this.
