Akiptan would like to thank the Veterans for their service. In honor of Veteran's Day, Akiptan offices will be closed November 11th, 2024.

Yesterday, Wells Fargo announced their Invest Native grantees. We are grateful to be one of the 33 organizations selected for this round of funding. Akiptan, Inc will use this grant to support our staff as well as Native ag producers. Funds will be deployed as equity grants to the Native ag producers, which will increase their operations' financial strength.

Akiptan is honoring Native American Heritage Month with Native agriculture statistics. In 2022, the United States had 78,316 producers who identified as American Indian/Alaska Native, either alone or in combination with another race. They accounted for 2% of the country’s 3.4 million producers, with the majority in the Western and Plains states. American Indian/Alaska Native producers were younger and more likely to be female than U.S. producers overall. (Source: 2022 Census of Agriculture highlights)
