In fact, they leased a milking parlor, free stall barns, silos and other farm equipment. Along with fixed and 100% tax deductible lease payments, the leases protected their equity ratios by providing off balance sheet financing. They chose Telmark for its knowledge of the dairy industry, service and reputation for financing. They also enjoyed working with their Telmark representative who personally knows the ups and downs of farming. By financing with a lease, terms were kept to a minimum, allowing for the continued growth of the operation. Telmark’s quick response allowed the Prissels to move quickly into their dairy expansion.
