General Information
The Agricultural Finance Databook is a compilation of various data on current developments in agricultural finance. Large portions of the data
come from regular surveys conducted by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or Federal Reserve Banks. Other portions of
the data come from the quarterly call report data of commercial banks or from the reports of other financial institutions involved in agricultural
lending. When the current issue went to press, data from the survey of terms of bank lending were available for the fourth quarter of 2001; the
other data generally were available through the third quarter of 2001.
Parts or all of the Agricultural Finance Databook may be copied and distributed freely. Any redistribution of selected parts of the Databook
should be accompanied by the "contents" pages at the beginning of the corresponding section, together with the front cover identifying the
Databook and date of issue, and this page providing subscription information. Remaining questions may be addressed to Nicholas Walraven at
the address shown on the cover.
The Databook is furnished on a complimentary basis to college and university teachers, libraries of educational institutions, government
departments and agencies, and public libraries. Others should enclose the annual subscription fee of $5.00.
New subscriptions to the Databook (Statistical Release E.15) may be entered by sending a mailing address (including zip code) to:
Publications Services, Mail Stop 138
Federal Reserve Board
Washington, D.C. 20551
Notice of change of address also should be sent to Publications Services. A copy of the back cover showing the old address should be
included.

SOURCES OF DATA:
These data on the farm loans of $1000 or more made by commercial banks are derived from quarterly sample surveys conducted by the Federal Reserve
System during the first full week of the second month of each quarter. Data obtained from the sample are expanded into national estimates for all
commercial banks, which are shown in the following tables.
Before August 1989, the farm loan survey was part of a broader survey of the terms of lending by a sample of 348 commercial banks. A subset of 250
banks was asked for information regarding agricultural lending, and about 150 typically reported at least one farm loan.
Since August of 1989, the data have been drawn from a redesigned sample of 250 banks that is no longer part of the broader survey. In the redesigned
sample, banks are stratified according to their volume of farm lending; previously, they had been stratified according to the volume of business loans.
However, the sample data always have been expanded into national estimates for all commercial banks, and these estimates necessarily exhibit variability
due to sampling error. The estimates are sensitive to the occasional appearance of very large loans in the sample. In addition, the breakdown of national
estimates into those for large banks and small banks may have been affected somewhat by the new sampling procedures that were implemented in August
1989; apparent shifts in the data as of that date should be treated with caution.
Beginning with the May 1997 survey, data on the assessment by the lender of the risk associated with each loan, the next date that the rate of interest could
be adjusted, whether the loan was callable by the bank, and whether the borrower could prepay the loan without penalty began to be collected. Over time,
the data on the lender’s perception of the riskiness of farm loans should help provide a better picture of the effect of fluctuations in the creditworthiness of
farm borrowers as either farm financial conditions or the broader economic environment changes. The new data on loan repricing dates, callability of the
loan, and the existence of prepayment penalties should help to refine estimates of the duration of farm loans made by commercial banks.
Tables I.H.1 through 1.H.6 contain most of the new data, while the other tables in section I attempt to show estimates that are comparable to those that have
been presented for a number of years. However, for several quarters while the new survey was being designed, banks that left the survey panel were not
replaced immediately, because new replacement banks would soon have been forced to revise their newly-instituted reporting procedures when the new
survey form went into effect. As a result, the size of the survey panel dwindled through early 1997, and with the May 1997 survey, an unusually-large
number of new reporters (about 25) were added. While this does not affect the validity of the May survey information, it likely introduced sampling error,
especially when the May survey results are compared with those of previous quarters.

SECTION I: (CONTINUED)
The format and the information contained in the tables are likely to change over time as more of the new survey information is acquired.
More detailed results from each quarterly survey previously were published in Statistical Release E.2A, "Survey of Terms of Bank Lending to Farmers".
Beginning in February, 1992, the more detailed results are included at the end of this section of the Databook, and the E2.A has been discontinued. Starting
with the August 1986 survey, farm loans secured by real estate are included in the data shown in the table of detailed results, whereas such loans are
excluded from the tabulations in Tables I.A through I.G and the summary charts.
Beginning in November 1991, several survey statistics are estimated for each of ten farm production regions as defined by the USD A. These statistics,
which are presented in table I.I, should be treated with some caution. Although an effort was made to choose a good regional mix of banks for the panel, the
panel never has been stratified by region. Consequently, the survey results are less precise for each region than for the totals for the nation.

NOTES TO TABLE I.H
The Survey of Terms of Bank Lending to Farmers collects data on gross loan extensions made during the
first full business week in the mid-month of each quarter by a sample of 250 banks of all sizes. The
sample data are blown up to estimate the lending terms at all insured agricultural banks during that week.
The estimated terms of bank lending are not intended for use in collecting the terms of loans extended
over the entire quarter or those residing in the portfolios of banks. Loans of less than $1,000 are excluded
from the survey.

1. Average maturities are weighted by loan size and exclude loans with no stated maturity.
2. The repricing interval measures the period from the date the loan is made until it first may be repriced.
For floating-rate loans that are subject to repricing at any time-such as many prime-based loans-the
repricing interval is zero. For floating rate loans that have a scheduled repricing interval, the interval
measures the number of days between the date the loan is made and the date on which it is next
scheduled to reprice. For loans having rates that remain fixed until the loan matures (fixed-rate loans), the
interval measures the number of days between the date the loan is made and the date on which it
matures. Loans that reprice daily are assumed to reprice on the business day after they are made.
3. A complete description of these risk rating categories is available from the Banking and Money Market
Statistics Section, mail stop 81, the Federal Reserve Board, Washington, D C 20551. The category
"Moderate Risk" includes the average loan, under average economic conditions, at the typical lender. The
weighted-average risk ratings are calculated by assigning a value of "1" to minimal risk loans; "2" to low
risk loans; "3" to moderate risk loans; “4" to acceptable risk loans; and "5" to special mention and
classified loans. These values are weighted by loan amount and exclude loans with no risk rating. Some
of the loans are not rated for risk.
4. Effective (compounded) annual interest rates are calculated from the stated rate and other terms of the
loans and weighted by loan size.
5. The chances are about two out of three that the average rate shown would differ by less than this
amount from the average rate that would be found by a complete survey of lending at all banks.
6. The interquartile range shows the interest rate range that encompasses the middle 50 percent of the
total dollar amount of loans made.
7. Among banks reporting loans to farmers, most "large banks" (survey strata 1 and 2) had over $25
million in farm loans, most “other banks" (survey strata 3 to 5) had farm loans below $25 million.

SOURCES OF DATA:
The data in tables R A through II.H are prepared using data from the quarterly reports of condition and income for commercial banks. These reports
changed substantially beginning in March 2001, and the information on the delinquencies and charge-offs of farm nonreal estate loans after that date is not
directly comparable to that shown in earlier editions of the Databook. Under the new system, banks with more than $300 million in assets or any bank with
a foreign office continue to report the same information as before. However, smaller banks where farm production loans account for more than 5 percent of
total loans now report the same information on delinquencies and charge-offs of farm production loans as larger banks. In the new reporting system, small
banks where farm production loans account for less than 5 percent of total loans are excused from reporting delinquencies or charge-offs of farm production
loans. Before March 2001, these small banks had reported delinquencies and charge-offs of "agricultural loans" according to the particular bank’s own
definition, and we used these responses to help estimate total delinquencies of farm production loans. Under the new reporting system, the totals for the
nation as a whole include estimates of delinquencies and charge-offs of non-real-estate farm loans for small banks that hold about 35 percent of the volume
of such loans that is outstanding. All banks continue to report delinquencies and charge-offs of loans that are secured by farm real estate, which are shown
in tables U.D and II.E.




SECTION II: (continued)
Examination of total lending at banks that have a high exposure to agricultural loans provides an alternative perspective on the agricultural lending situation.
Agricultural banks in table ILF through table II.I are those that have a proportion of farm loans (real estate plus nonreal estate) to total loans that is greater
than the unweighted average at all banks. The estimate of this average was 14.9 percent in December of 2001.
Information on failed banks (table II.I) is obtained from news releases of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, with agricultural banks broken out in
our tabulation according to the definition stated in the previous paragraph.

Data are estimates of the national totals for farm non-real-estate loans.
After 1984, estimates are based on reports from
banks that hold more than 90 percent of such loans.
Earlier, only large banks that held about one-fourth of such loans
reported nonaccrual and renegotiated farm loans; for other banks,estimates of delinquent farm loans are based on a study of
delinquent total loans at these banks.

* Data are estimates of the national charge-offs of farm non-real-estate loans based on reports from banks that hold more than
90 percent of the outstanding national volume of such loans. Additional uncertainty of the estimates arises because small
banks report only charge-offs of 'agricultural' loans as defined by each bank for its internal purposes. Banks first reported
these data on the March 1984 Report of Income.

SOURCES OF DATA:
Data are from quarterly surveys of agricultural credit conditions at commercial banks. These surveys are conducted at the end of each quarter by five
Federal Reserve Banks. The size of the surveys differs considerably, as is noted in the information below. In addition, the five surveys differ in subject
matter covered (as is evident in the tables), wording of basically similar questions, and type of banks covered. Most of the differences in wording are
reflected in the use of different column headings on the two pages of each table. The states included in each district are indicated in the table headings;
states that fall only partly within a given district are marked with asterisks.
Beginning in 1994, the Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank revised its survey considerably. Many questions were changed and it was not always possible to
match the data to the categories that we have shown in previous editions of the Databook. Whenever possible, we have tried to fit the data from the revised
survey into the older format. Series that were discontinued show no data for the first quarter, while those that were added suddenly appear. When a
significant break in the data occurred, we included the new data and added a footnote to highlight the changes.
Research departments at each of the five Reserve Banks issue more detailed quarterly reports on their survey results; these reports are available at the
addresses given below.
Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. Box 834, Chicago, Illinois, 60690
The sample includes member banks at which farm loans represented 25 percent or more of total loans as of June 1972 (a 10 percent standard is used for
banks in the state of Michigan). The sample has undergone periodic review. The latest survey results were based on the responses of about 450 banks.
Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas Citv. Federal Reserve P.O. Station, Kansas City Missouri 64198
The original sample chosen in 1976 had 181 banks selected from banks at which farm loans constituted 50 percent or more of total loans, with appropriate
representation of all farm areas. The sample was redrawn and significantly expanded in 1987; roughly 300 banks responded to the latest survey.
Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. Minneapolis, Minnesota 55480
Before 1987, the sample provided a cross-section of banks of all sizes that were engaged in farm lending. Members of the Upper Midwest Agricultural
Credit Council formed the core of the survey panel. Beginning in 1987, the sample was redrawn to include only banks at which farm loans represented 25
percent or more of total loans. As outlined above, the Minneapolis survey was changed considerably beginning in the first quarter of 1994. In recent
surveys, about 130 banks responded.

Section III: (continued!
Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. P.O. Box 655906, Dallas, Texas 75265-5906
The sample is stratified regionally and includes banks at which farm loans are relatively important or which hold a major portion of bank loans in their
region. The sample was enlarged in the first quarter of 1985 and was redrawn in the second quarter of 1989. The results for the most recent quarter were
based on the responses from about 200 respondents.
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. Richmond, Virginia 23261
The number of agricultural banks in this district is much smaller than those of the other districts. When the survey was initiated in 1975, the sample
consisted of 43 banks of all sizes; banks with larger amounts of farm loans were sampled more heavily. More recently, the sample has consisted of about 30
banks, roughly three-fourths of which typically respond to the quarterly surveys.
