Ogallala Water

Adam was born and raised on a farm in Central Nebraska (Fullerton) that produced irrigated corn, beans, alfalfa, and that had a cow/calf operation.   After graduating high school, Adam attended Wayne State College in Wayne Nebraska and earning degrees in Business Management and Agri-business.

Adam's first ag banking job was in south central Nebraska (Byron), where a majority of farming was devoted to dryland corn, beans, and wheat.  After a two-year stint there, Adam moved to Cozad in west central Nebraska to work with Homestead Bank, and has been with this organization for the last 25 years. Adam started as a Jr. Loan Officer and currently serves as president for Homestead Bank's seven locations throughout west central, central, and northeast Nebraska. Homestead Bank's main focus is financing agricultural operations growing mainly corn, beans, and alfalfa, both dryland and irrigated. Homestead Bank also finances many livestock producers, of which most are cow/calf or cattle feeding operations.

Outside of the bank, Adam owns irrigated farmland in Central Nebraska and runs a small cow/calf herd, so he also has a personal interest in natural resources.
