The FCS today accounts for 20% of non-real estate farm debt outstanding. The FCS today also accounts for over 40% of the real estate farm debt outstanding ( debt secured by real estate mortgage).

11 Farm Credit System FCS became wholly borrower-owned when the last government loan was repaid in 1968. FCS is regulated by the Farm Credit Administration, which is an agency of the Federal government’s Executive Branch. The FCA regularly examines loan portfolios to ensure compliance with sound lending practices set forth in examination manuals.

Rural commercial banks have a much greater percentage of their loan portfolio devoted to agriculture.
