Farm loans: what ag bankers report

Is farm credit getting tighter where you farm? Each quarter the Federal Reserve asks ag bankers how repayment and loan renewals compare with a year earlier. Parts of Tennessee are in the St. Louis and Atlanta Fed districts. The Atlanta district has no farm credit survey in the Kansas City Fed's table, so only St. Louis is shown.

How this works

Each quarter, ag bankers in the district say whether each item was higher, lower or the same as a year earlier. The index is the percent saying higher, minus the percent saying lower, plus 100. Over 100 means more said higher; under 100, more said lower; 100 is an even split.

The numbers come from the Kansas City Fed's table of every district survey. Chicago and Dallas quarters are checked against those banks' own files; a quarter where the two disagree is left out rather than guessed, and shows as a gap in the chart, as does a quarter not reported.

Fed districts do not follow state lines: a split state shows each district that reports. Richmond and San Francisco have no reading in the table after 2021 Q4 and 2020 Q2, so they are not shown. Read 2026-10-28.

Dry cash rent, 2026 survey. Five equal-count groups of the state's counties: each swatch shows the range it covers. Grey is a county with no figure. Land values flagged to read with care are left grey.

Every county

Rent is dollars per acre, NASS county survey; an older year is shown beside the figure. Land value is the census of agriculture estimate; a star marks a value flagged to read with care. Corn yield is the median of published years. Claims per $100 of coverage are the last ten closed crop years. Drought weeks are the share of weeks since 2000 with half the county or more in D2 drought or worse. n/a means the source withheld the figure or the record does not carry it.
