A Risk Profile of Lenders' Farm Loan Portfolios1985 •
Farm lenders will face difficult credit problems into at least the intermediate future. As much as 25 to 40 percent of the outstanding debt held by banks and production credit associations was owed by farmers with debt/asset ratios of 60 percent or more on January 1, 1980, when farmland values were near peak levels. Although the Farmers Home Administration held the highest percent of farm loans owed by high leverage farmers, production credit associations, merchants, and commercial banks had a relatively large percentage of their farm loans directed at high leverage farmers. The Delta and Southeastern States had the highest percentage of farm debt owed by highly leveraged farmers. Given the general deterioration of farmland values in many regions of the country since 1980, the situation today is likely much worse, with the Delta and Southeastern States remaining in the most critical condition

The Costs and Returns of Agricultural Credit Delivery2005 •
2003 •
Detailed customer loan records were used to investigate the profitability of agricultural lending relationships. Analyses consider a variety of factors that influence the costs and returns associated with agricultural lending relationships. Among other things, the results provide evidence of substantial economies of size at the relationship level.
A revised version was published as: Denis Nadolnyak, Xuan Shen, Valentina Hartarska, (2017) "Farm income and output and lending by the farm credit system", Agricultural Abstract: Purpose The purpose of this paper is to provide evidence of the positive impact of the FCS lending on farm incomes which should be useful to policymakers as they consider reforms and further support for this 100-year-old major agricultural lender. Design/ methodology/ approach The authors construct a panel for the 1991-2010 period from the FCS financial statements and evaluate how lending by the FCS institutions has affected farm incomes and farm output. The authors use fixed effects estimations and control for credit by other agricultural lenders as well as the stock of capital, prices, and interest rat es. Since previous work suggests that rural financial markets are segmented and the FCS serves larger full-time farmers with mostly real-estate backed loans, the authors evaluate the impacts of farm real-estate backed loans and of short-term agricultural loans separately for a shorter period for which the data is available. The authors also perform robustness checks with alternative estimation techniques. Findings The authors found a positive association between credit by the FCS institutions and farm income and output. The magnitude of the estimated impact is larger during the 1990s than in the 2000s. Research limitations/implications The positive link between the FCS institutions' credit and farm incomes and output supports the notion that the FCS lending was beneficial to farmers. The evidence also supports the segmentation hypothesis of rural financial markets. The financial reports data for 1991-2010 are from the ACAs and FLCAs aggregated on the regional level because there is no clear way to classify FCS lending to a more disaggregate level like the state. The authors also assemble and analyze a state-level data set that contains state-level balance sheet data for the period 1991-2003. Originality/value The authors are not aware of another work that directly links (real estate and non-real estate) credit by FCS institutions to agricultural output and farm incomes.
