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. In early December, when this publication went to press, data were available through either the
second or third quarters of 1989.
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 substantive questions may be addressed to Nicholas Walraven
or John Rosine 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.
the old address should be included.

SOURCES OF DATA:
Section I focuses on debt figures that are reported by the major farm lending institutions. These data
provide much of the basis for the USDA's annual estimates of farm debt that are reported in Economic
Indicators of the Farm Sector: National Financial Summary, available from the USDA's Economic Research
Service. As is evident in the tables that follow—particularly Table A.6—annual changes in the lender data
tend to approximate quite closely the changes in the official USDA data. Thus, the lender data, in an
unadjusted form, seem to provide a reasonably good picture of current trends in agricultural debt outstanding.

The sources of the data in this section are the quarterly reports of condition, all insured commercial banks;
the quarterly information statements of the Farm Credit System; "Gross Flow of Mortgage Loans in the United
States," American Council of Life Insurance; and "Report 616," Farmers Home Administration, U.S. Department of
Agriculture. The farm debt series on a USDA basis is from the Economic Research Service. The data are not
seasonally adjusted.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS:
When this edition of the Databook went to press in early December, a full set of data on farm loans
outstanding was available only through June 1989. As of that date, the overall volume of farm debt held by
the institutional lenders was continuing to trend lower on a year-to-year basis, but at a much slower rate
than through the mid-1980s.
The trends in loans outstanding vary among the different lenders. At commercial banks, the rate of increase
in the volume of farm loans secured by real estate picked up somewhat in the second quarter of 1989, and the
volume of nonreal estate loans moved up to a level 1-1/2 percent above that of a year earlier. As of midyear, other lenders still were experiencing year-to-year declines in their volumes of both real estate and
nonreal estate loans. However, third-quarter data that are available for the Farm Credit System (but are not
included in the tables) show the System's volume of nonreal estate loans rising 2.6 percent from the second
quarter, to a level about 4.4 percent above a year earlier; this is the first such year-to-year gain in many
quarters.

SOURCES OF DATA:
These data on the farm loans 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
340 commercial banks. A subset of 250 banks was asked for information regarding agricultural lending, and
about 150 typically reported at least one farm loan.
Beginning in August of 1989, the data are being drawn from a new, redesigned sample of 250 banks that is no
longer part of the broader survey. In choosing the new sample, banks are stratified according to their volume
of farm lending; previously, they had been stratified according to the volume of total loans. As before,
however, the sample data are being expanded into national estimates for all commercial banks. In the August
1989 survey, about 200 banks reported at least one farm loan, and the number of sample loans totaled about
4500, more than twice the number typically reported in the previous quarterly surveys.
The new panel of farm banks also was chosen so that the regional mix of sample banks corresponds roughly to
the geographic distribution of outstanding farm loans; over time, as more experience is gained with the new
sample, it may become possible to examine regional differences in the terms of agricultural lending.
In both the previous survey and the new one, the national estimates exhibit variability due to sampling error.
This variability is particularly evident in data on average maturity, which are greatly affected by the




SECTION II: (CONTINUED)
occasional appearance of loans with a maturity of about 20 years. In addition, the breakdown of national
estimates into those for large banks and small banks may be affected somewhat by the new sampling procedures
that were implemented in August 1989; apparent shifts in the data as of that date therefore should be treated
with caution.
More detailed results from each quarterly survey are published in Table 5 of Statistical Release E.2, "Survey
of Terms of Bank Lending," for which a mailing list is maintained by Publications Services, Mail Stop 138,
Federal Reserve Board, Washington, D.C., 20551. Starting with the August 1986 survey, farm loans secured by
real estate are included in the data shown in Statistical Release E.2, whereas such loans are excluded from
the tabulations presented here.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS:
According to the survey taken in the second week of August 1989, the average effective rate of interest on
commercial banks' nonreal estate loans to farmers (Table II.E) was 12.5 percent, down 40 basis points from
the level reported in the May survey. Over the previous four quarters, the average interest rate on nonreal
estate farm loans had risen about 220 basis points. In the third quarter, lower rates were reported for all
types of farm loans and at both large banks and small banks.
Other results from the quarterly surveys are presented in Tables II.A through II.D and in Table II.F. Because
the quarterly data on these other loan characteristics (e.g., average loan maturity and the average size of
loan) tend to be volatile, annual averages probably are a better indicator of the underlying trends. For
1989, the survey data for the first three quarters show the amount of nonreal estate farm loans made by
commercial banks averaging a bit over $50 billion at an annual rate. The number of such loans made has
averaged more than 2-1/2 million at an annual rate, and the size of these loans has averaged about $19,000.
As in the past several years, the nonreal estate farm loans made by banks have average maturities of about 8
to 9 months. Nearly two-thirds of the loans are being made with a floating interest rate; among large banks,
the proportion is much higher—between 8 0 and 90 percent of the amount of loans made.

SOURCES OF DATA:
The data in tables III.A through III.G are prepared using data from the quarterly reports of condition and
income for commercial banks. Delinquencies and charge-offs of nonreal estate farm loans for the nation as a
whole (table III.A and table III.B) are estimated from reports of banks that hold more than 90 percent of
total nonreal estate farm loans. Banks that do not report delinquencies of agricultural loans are assumed to
have the same delinquency rates as those that report.
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 III.C through table III.H 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. This average was 16.00 percent in June of 1989.
Failures of banks (table III.H) are obtained from news releases of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation,
with agricultural banks defined, as above, by the amount of farm loans relative to total loans that they hold.




SECTION III: (continued)

Recent Developments:
Through June 1989, the condition of agricultural lenders and borrowers continued the steady improvement seen
since mid-1986. At commercial banks overall, the amount of nonreal estate farm loans that are delinquent fell
$0.3 billion from mid-1988 to mid-1989, reflecting a decline in nonaccrual loans to the lowest level in
several years (table III.A). Net charge-offs, shown in table III.B, have slowed further during the past four
quarters, and with problem loans at the lowest levels in a number of years, charge-offs should remain low in
the near future.
Improvement also continues to be evident in the condition of agricultural banks. The proportion of
agricultural banks with large amounts of nonperforming loans relative to total loans (table III.C) declined
further over the past year, as did the proportion of banks with a high rate of net charge-offs (table III .D) .
In addition, banks with large levels of problem loans relative to capital became less numerous—fewer than
12 percent of agricultural banks had amounts of nonperforming loans that were more than 1/4 of total capital
(table III.E). In 1988 and the first half of 1989, agricultural banks have been at least as profitable as
small banks that do not concentrate as heavily on farm lending, and this relative profitability of
agricultural banks roughly parallels the patterns seen before the farm financial difficulties of the mid-1980s
(table III.F). Through mid-1989, the average ratio of loans to deposits at agricultural banks (table III.G)
remained low by historical standards. The rate of failure of agricultural banks remained low compared to that
of recent years (table III.H).

Data are estimates of national totals for farm nonreal 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 national charge-offs of farm nonreal 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 conducted at the end of
each quarter by five Federal Reserve Banks. Each of these banks issues a more detailed quarterly report on
its survey results, available from its Research Department at the address given below. 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. Important
differences in the type of banks surveyed are noted 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 and has included roughly 900 banks in recent quarters.
Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Federal Reserve P.O. Station, Kansas City Missouri 64198
The sample chosen originally in 1976 consisted of 188 banks selected from among banks at which farm loans
constituted 50 percent or more of total loans, with appropriate representation of all farm areas. In recent
quarters, the sample has included about 150 banks.




Section IV:

(continued)

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. Currently the sample includes 325 banks and in recent quarters the rate of responses has averaged
roughly 50 percent.
Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, Station K, Dallas, Texas 75222
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. About 300 banks have been responding to the survey in
recent quarters.
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, Richmond, Virginia 23261
The sample selected in 1975 consisted of 43 banks of all sizes.
loans were sampled more heavily.

Banks with the larger amounts of farm

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS:
The Reserve Banks' surveys of agricultural credit conditions suggest that the demand for farm loans (Tables
IV.A and IV.B) is holding steady or rising across the various agricultural regions. Indications of rising
loan demand is most evident in the midwestern districts—Chicago, Kansas City, and Minneapolis—where the
number of respondents citing higher loan demand has been running well above those who say that demand has
decreased. The rise in loan demand appears to be associated mainly with increased operating expenses,
purchases of farm machinery, and storage of farm crops, although, in some areas hurt by drought, there also
are scattered reports of farmers borrowing to cover unexpected shortfalls in cash receipts.
In general, banks continue to have ample funds available to accommodate the demand for farm loans. Although
loan-to-deposit ratios have moved up for banks in the Chicago District (Table IV.C), they still are well below
the peaks reached in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and a majority of the bankers surveyed continue to
characterize the ratios as being lower than desired. Loan-to-deposit ratios remain low, on balance, in the




27

Section IV:

(continued)

Kansas City, Minneapolis and Dallas districts. In the Richmond district, by contrast, a significant
proportion of the respondents continue to view the current loan-to-deposit ratios as being at higher-thandesired levels.
Indicators of loan quality continue to look relatively favorable. Although loan repayment rates (Table IV.A)
may have slipped a little in regions affected by the droughts of the last two years, the overall picture
remains one in which repayment problems are relatively limited.
All of the Reserve Bank surveys show the interest rates on farm loans (Table IV.D) turning down after the
first quarter of 1989 and reversing some of the increases that had occurred over the previous few quarters.
The Reserve Bank surveys continue to show year-to-year increases in land prices (Table IV.E), but, in most
regions, prices are rising at a somewhat slower rate than in previous quarters. In the Chicago District, land
prices rose 2 percent in the third quarter of 1989 to a level 8 percent above a year earlier. The thirdquarter Kansas City survey showed prices of various types of farm land up 8 to 11 percent from a year earlier,
but with a slowing evident over the past two quarters. The Minneapolis survey for the third quarter indicated
a 6 percent rise for dryland relative to a year earlier and slightly smaller gains for other types of land.
In the Richmond district, land prices at the end of the third quarter were reported to be 20 percent above
those of a year earlier; the quarterly pattern of change in this land price measure has been quite volatile of
late, perhaps reflecting the relatively small number of banks included in the Richmond survey.
