Voi. 15 No. 31 Des Moines, Iowa November 17,1986 9th Fed Sees Some Farm Improvement INANCIAL problems for area farmers continue, but for the se cond quarter in a row they appear to be easing somewhat, according to a recent survey of rural banks con ducted by the Federal Reserve Bank in Minneapolis. The survey results are based on the responses of 89 bankers throughout rural areas of Minnesota, Montana, North Dako ta, South Dakota, and northwestern Wisconsin. Fed economist Stanley L. Graham reported that even though farm earnings continued to decline in the third quarter, they did so at a more moderate pace. Nearly one-fourth of the bankers said farm earnings in their areas were actually greater than a year ago. This was a tripling of the proportion reporting greater earnings in the second quarter. On the other hand, about half the bank ers said third quarter farm earnings were below those of a year ago. The moderation in the decline, Mr. Graham said, can be attributed, in part, to lower fuel prices and in terest rates. Also, some parts of the survey area, m ost notably Montana and the western Dakotas, benefited from a rise in livestock prices and a drought-ending rain fall w hich boosted crop yields. Farmland values also declined at a more moderate pace. The bankers reported that, on average, the value F of irrigated farmland declined 3.8 percent; nonirrigated farmland, 4.4 percent; and pasture and grazing land, 6.1 percent. The comparable declines in the second quarter were 5.2 percent, 5.6 percent, and 7.9 per cent, respectively. The Fed's survey also revealed other signs of some improvement for farmers. The percentage of bankers reporting an above normal demand to refinance farm loans dropped nearly 20 percentage points in the third quarter. In addition, fewer farmers were forced to go out of business or partially liquidate their assets. A t the end of September the bankers said that 3 percent of area farmers went out of business for reasons of financial stress in the last six months; 4.1 percent did so dur ing the previous six months. Mr. Graham cautioned, however, that financial problems remain serious in m ost areas. Farm debt repayment was still slow at nearly a third of the banks and fast at only 16 percent. Refinancing demand was greater than normal at more than a third of the banks and less than nor mal at just 5 percent. D espite the recent signs of easing, m ost of the bankers responding to the Fed’s survey do not expect much improvement for the fourth quarter. The only widely held optim istic view is that interest rates will decline fur ther by the end of the year. Mr. Gra ham noted, though, that another possible cause for optimism has ap peared since the survey was taken: the new acreage diversion program for feed grains announced by the USD A in late October. The program will start to bring farmers advance payments in the fourth quarter. □ S t. J o s e p h B a n ks F a il First Stock Yards Bank of St. Joseph, Mo., was closed November 7 by the Missouri Commissioner of Fi nance, and was sold by the FDIC for a $403,000 premium to The Bank of St. Joseph. First Stock Yards had about $30 million in assets. The Bank of St. Joseph will put in $2.2 million capital and is purchasing other assets of $20.7 million. The FDIC is advancing $11 million to The Bank of St. Joseph and is re taining $8 million in assets. On the same date, the Missouri department closed The Home Bank of Savannah in the north St. Joseph suburbs. It had about $39.5 million in assets. United Missouri Bancshares paid the FDIC a $560,000 premium for the $39.5 million asset institution and has re-opened it as a branch. First Stock Yards Bank and The Home Bank both are remnants of First M idwest Bancorp., whose principal bank, First National Bank of St. Joseph, failed in October, 1985.
