Family-Owned & Farmer-Focused

Founded by Eric & Kelli Barnes in August 2008, Farmers Alliance LLC was built to challenge the traditional crop input supply chain. As a family-owned business, our focus has always been on serving farmers-not selling products. We offer wholesale pricing on fertilizer with no added margin, giving our members full access to products, programs, and custom application services.  Proud to be a Beck's dealer, we're committed to providing real choice and real value to every farm we serve. 

Farmers Alliance LLC

We are a Supplier and Service Provider-Not a Sales Organization-Built like a family farm. Committed to long-term success.

Our Story

In 2008, I was given a chance that changed the course of my life. Six local farmers believed in me enough to trust me with their crop inputs before Farmers Alliance LLC was even off the ground. They took a risk on me, and their belief is the reason we are here today.
Because of that start, I’ve always believed that people deserve to be believed in. At Farmers Alliance LLC, we don’t just sell products; we take care of people. Our farmers, our team, and our community are at the heart of everything we do.
We don’t believe in pressure, traps, or cutting corners. We believe in showing up, telling the truth, and doing exactly what we say we’re going to do. We are in the business of building relationships, not just chasing accounts.
To us, you aren’t a number or a transaction—you are a family and a livelihood. Whether you work with us or for us, you matter. This community isn’t just a location to us; it’s our home. We are building something that lasts—something we can all be proud of.
That’s why we’re here.

Eric Barnes

Owner/Service Representative

Eric started in the Ag Input Supply business in 1995 at Mid-Ohio Chemical in Botkins, after graduating from Waynesfield-Goshen Schools. He was employed as a Custom Applicator and Salesman and stayed with them through their subsequent sales and acquisitions until he became a Manager for them in 2003 as Royster Clark in Sidney, and then Crop Production Services. He eventually left for Auglaize Provico/Advanced Agri Solutions to take on a Manager’s Position for 3 of their retail facilities. Eric wished to continue his passion for Agriculture when he, and his wife Kelli, started their own family business, Farmers Alliance, in 2008. He and Kelli live in rural Wapakoneta with their three boys, Cole, Blake and Carson.
