Vol. 14 No. 24

Des Moines, Iowa

September 30,1985

Gov. Branstad at Iowa Bankers Convention:

bargoes and inflationary expecta­
tions o f the past, plus continuing
high interest rates, a grow ing na­
tional budget deficit which is now
approaching two trillion dollars, and
an over-valued dollar, which now
looks like it may com e down with
some action that’s being taken,
som ething that’s been long overdue.
These factors have raised the farm­
ers cost o f production, reduced their
markets, and literally ruined the
value o f their assets. These prob­
lems were brought on by the federal
governm ent and ju st as the federal
governm ent must put it’s fiscal
house in order, it also must take ac­
tion to address the consequences o f
not having done so in the past.
The continuing deterioration and
the recent admissions by the Farm
Credit System that they cannot han­
dle their problem internally provides
further evidence o f the need for fed­
eral action. This action is needed
now to help farmers and to help all
lenders, not ju st the Farm Credit
System . The Farm Credit System
leaders for months denied they had a
problem or that they needed outside
help. Now, they admit it. Yet, it
would be neither fair nor sufficient
for the federal governm ent to bail
out the Federal Farm Credit System
without addressing the problems
that farmers and other lenders are
having in the financial area.
I will continue to work and to

Action Needed Now to Help Farmers
And All Lenders, Not Just the FCS
(Ed. N ote: Iow a Gov. Terry Branstad has been a vocal leader in the ef­
fort to convince the Adm inistration
and Congress o f the severity and im­
pa ct o f the current m idw est farm cri­
sis. H e addressed the Iow a Bankers
A ssociation 99th annual convention
in D es M oines last week. H is re­
marks from that address follow.)
E ARE facing a very challeng­
ing time and you in the finan­
cial services industry are particular­
ly challenged right at this period o f
time. Each o f us here today is very
much aware o f our state’s econom y
and our dependence on agriculture.
Your institutions and many o f your
custom ers have been directly af­
fected by the troubles in the farm
econom y. State governm ent has, as
well. In fact, ju st last week I made a
substantial reduction o f 3.85% in all
state budgets to bring state spend­
ing in line with the realities o f exist­
ing revenue.
I appreciate the sensitivity with
which you have handled, both per­
sonally and professionally, the
stress and the problem s that exist in
our rural communities and, in fact,
even in our larger cities all across
the state. Leaders from your associ­
ation have worked with us and spent
literally hundreds o f hours form ulat­

W

ing and reviewing both state and
federal policies and how we can m ost
effectively address our nation’s agri­
cultural problem s. And your associ­
ation has played a m ajor role in help­
ing finance our Rural Concerns H ot­
line which is helping farmers and
people who are going through stress
to get counseling and good advice as
they cope with the personal and fi­
nancial problem s they are going
through.
In a large part, due to a concerned
effort o f the Iowa Bankers A ssocia­
tion and others, we were able to pro­
vide more operating loan guarantees
(FmHA) in this state in 1985 than
any other state in the country. W ith­
out your help and your involvem ent
in this program and without your
patience and forbearance and under­
standing many Iowa farmers would
not have been able to plant a crop
this spring. Unfortunately, the fed­
eral officials went back on their
word and refused to include farm
ownership loans in this guarantee
program. I think that was a tragic
mistake and the agricultural credit
crisis continues to grow and threa­
tens to drag down more farmers,
small businesses, and financial insti­
tutions.
W e’re all familiar with the many
causes o f this farm credit crisis—em­ (Turn to page 4, please . . .)

fight for federal action for a solution
to the farm credit problem —one that
will help farmers and will help farm­
ers who receive their financing from
commercial banks as well as the
Federal Land Banks and the P.C.As.

One approach that I believe dehttps://fraser.stlouisfed.org
Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

serves consideration is a federally
chartered entity that could serve as
a mechanism to purchase problem
loans at a discounted rate and also
as a mechanism to write down inter­
est rates and make it possible for
these farmers to be able to continue
their operations. This mechanism
could provide a reasonable alterna­
tive to m assive farm foreclosures
that would otherwise occur this fall
and winter. And such an entity
could serve as a holding mechanism
to keep land that’s already been re­
possessed o ff the market, thereby
giving farmers an opportunity to
lease it and to eventually purchase it
back.
Unfortunately, as the Federal
Farm Credit System loan losses
have mounted, that system has not
follow ed the footsteps o f many o f
you in the com m ercial banking in­
dustry in this state who have worked
with your custom ers, who have pro­
vided forebearance and, in fact,
there is very much a likelihood of
wholesale liquidation by the Farm
Credit System o f a number o f farm
operations this fall and winter. That
prospect is looking more and more
certain as the days go by. Frankly,
the marketplace ju st can’t stand a
substantial dumping o f assets at
this time. W e need to prevent the
Farm Credit System from doing this
until federal action can be taken.
One mechanism that would make
that possible is the moratorium law
which was amended by this year’s
general assembly. A s m ost o f you
know, the old 1939 law, the 1939
moratorium law, is basically un­
workable. However, with the help o f
Iowa State U niversity and with the
help o f your organization and others
in the financial and agricultural
policy areas, that law was updated
and amended during the 1985 ses­
sion o f the legislature. The new law
provides a very lim ited moratorium
for one year and only for those situa­
tions where it’s already in the liqui­
dation process and the farmers can
show they are current on paying
their interest but unable to make the
full principal payment. M ost com ­
mercial lenders have been working
with the farmers in that situation
already. This policy would apply to
those like the Farm Credit System
that are not quite as willing to work
with the individual borrowers. This
is a policy that m ost o f you have
been practicing individually and one
that I think makes sense.
Clearly, we in agriculture and the

heartland o f this country are going
through a very painful transition in
our econom y. It’s a transition that
has im plications far beyond the lives
o f those who are directly involved in
agriculture, in tilling the soil and
feeding the people in this country
and the world. W e have a number o f
challenges facing us and we’re cer­
tainly not out o f the woods; in fact, I
suspect the next six months to be
one o f the m ost stressful and difficult tim es in the history o f your as­
sociation and probably in your per­
sonal involvem ent in providing fi­
nancial services to the people o f this
state. I know it’s a stressful time for
those o f us in public office in this
state dealing with the im pact o f the
problem s on our state’s econom y. It
is pervasive.
Yet, during the last year, I think
you can all be proud o f the leader­
ship that the Iowa Bankers Associa­
tion has provided in this state. Due
to your involvem ent and your willingness to work with us in public of­
fice and with your individual bor­
rowers to serve as true partners, you
have lived up to your m otto o f being
a partner and friend and I know
sometimes people point the finger at
you and blame you for the problems
and we know that’s not true. W e
know that what is happening is be­
yond your control, is beyond our
control and som ething that we all
have to live with and w e’ve got to
work through.
W e need to continue to work
together. W e need to strengthen
that partnership. W e need to meet
the challenges that are before us.
I ’m confident that we can. I know it
won’t be easy. W e’re asking a lot.
People are going to have to make
some difficult sacrifices. W e’re go­
ing to have to make some tough
choices. That’s what the times call
for. I ’m confident that w e’re up to it,
that we can do it.
But, we’re going to have to have
your understanding and your help
as we deal with these problems.
Y ou’re going to have to have our
understanding and our help. A ll o f
us are in this together and we all
need to work together and I ’m confi­
dent that if we do that, as we have
for the last year, we will meet the
challenge and we can not only sur­
vive this crisis or this problem time
in our history, we can com e out
stronger and better as a result o f it.
W e need your continued help and cooperation and I ’m confident we will
receive it. Thank you.
