Meet Cody Hughes— AgTrust Farm Credit Board Member and West Texas Rancher

“No two years are the same here,” says Cody Hughes, an AgTrust Farm Credit Board Member. “We’re always looking for ways to be better managers of the land so we can adjust fast when years like this come along.”

Cody Hughes is a fifth-generation farmer who financed his first 160 acres of cropland through AgTrust Farm Credit in 2003. He grows cotton, wheat, and Tifton 85, a bermudagrass hybrid.  Cody and his family also raise show steers.

Cody applies a “test-and-learn” approach to his farming, and has found rotating between cotton and wheat, paired with smart irrigation pivots give the most success in his operation.
