Consolidated Farm Service Agency: Update on the Farm Loan Portfolio (Fact
Sheet, 07/14/95, GAO/RCED-95-223FS).

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on the
Department of Agriculture's direct and guaranteed farm loan programs,
focusing on: (1) the levels of outstanding debt on active loans and
amounts owed by delinquent borrowers as of March 31, 1995; (2) losses on
farm loans from fiscal year (FY) 1989 through March 31, 1995; and (3)
new loans to borrowers who were delinquent or whose past defaults
resulted in losses.

GAO found that: (1) as of March 31, 1995, the Consolidated Farm Service
Agency's (CFSA) outstanding principal for active farm loans totalled
$11.9 billion in the direct loan program and $5.9 billion in the
guaranteed loan program; (2) 47 percent of the outstanding principal in
the direct loan program and 4 percent of the outstanding principal in
the guaranteed program was held by delinquent borrowers; (3) farm
ownership loans accounted for $4.7 billion in outstanding principal owed
and emergency disaster assistance loans accounted for $3.2 billion in
outstanding principal; (4) 34 percent of borrowers who owed less than
$200,000 were delinquent, while 93 percent of borrowers who owed over $1
million were delinquent; (5) CFSA incurred $12.4 billion in losses on
direct loans and $300 million in losses on guaranteed loans from FY 1989
through March 31, 1995; (6) the highest losses within the direct loan
program occurred with emergency disaster assistance loans; (7) CFSA made
about $234 million in new direct loans and $214 million in new
guaranteed loans to borrowers after it had incurred losses on their
previous farm loans; and (8) CFSA made an additional $130 million in
loans from FY 1989 to March 31, 1995 under a policy allowing delinquent
borrowers to obtain new loans for operating expenses.

The Honorable Richard G.  Lugar
Chairman
The Honorable Patrick J.  Leahy
Ranking Minority Member
Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition,
 and Forestry
United States Senate

This report responds to your April 7, 1995, request for selected
information on the U.S.  Department of Agriculture's (USDA) direct
and guaranteed farm loan programs.\1 In particular, we are providing
information on the (1) levels of outstanding debt on active loans and
amounts owed by delinquent borrowers as of March 31, 1995; (2) losses
on farm loans from fiscal year 1989 through March 31, 1995; and (3)
new loans to borrowers who are delinquent and to borrowers whose past
defaults resulted in losses.  The information contained in this
report updates information that we have reported previously.  It does
not address the many management and policy issues associated with the
federal farm loan program.  We have addressed these issues in a
number of previous reports and testimonies, the most recent of which
were issued earlier this year.\2

In summary, we found the following: 


--------------------
\1 Historically, farm loans were administered within USDA by the
Farmers Home Administration.  In October 1994, this responsibility
was transferred to the newly created Consolidated Farm Service
Agency. 

\2 High-Risk Series:  Farm Loan Programs (GAO/HR-95-9, Feb.  1995);
Farm Loans:  Actions Needed to Safeguard Taxpayers' Interests
(GAO/T-RCED-95-147, Mar.  31, 1995); Farm Loans:  Actions Needed to
Safeguard Taxpayers' Interests (GAO/T-RCED-95-194, May 18, 1995). 


      OUTSTANDING DEBT AND AMOUNTS
      OWED BY DELINQUENT BORROWERS
---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :0.1

  As of March 31, 1995, the Consolidated Farm Service Agency's (CFSA)
     outstanding principal for active direct and guaranteed farm
     loans to the nation's farmers totaled $17.8 billion--$11.9
     billion in the direct loan program and $5.9 billion in the
     guaranteed loan program. 

  Of the $11.9 billion in outstanding principal in the direct loan
     program, $5.6 billion, or about 47 percent,\3

was held by delinquent borrowers, that is, borrowers who were past
due on their loan payments.\4 Of the $5.9 billion in outstanding
principal in the guaranteed loan program, $211 million, or about 4
percent, was held by delinquent borrowers. 

Since the direct loan portfolio has more problem debt than the
guaranteed loan portfolio, we focused on it and found the following: 

  Farm ownership loans, made for purposes such as buying and
     improving farm land, accounted for the most outstanding
     principal owed--$4.7 billion.  Emergency disaster assistance
     loans, made to farmers whose operations have been substantially
     damaged by adverse weather or other natural disasters, accounted
     for $3.2 billion.  Operating loans ($2.8 billion), economic
     emergency loans\5 ($1.2 billion), and other direct loans ($148
     million) made up the balance of the outstanding principal. 
     While the two types of emergency loans had the highest
     percentage of amounts owed by delinquent borrowers--both over 50
     percent--a substantial portion of the farm ownership and
     operating loans was also held by delinquent borrowers--31 and 45
     percent, respectively. 

  Most outstanding direct loan principal was owed by borrowers who
     owed less than $200,000--$7.4 billion was held by borrowers in
     this category.  On the other hand, $562 million in outstanding
     principal was held by active borrowers whose direct loan
     principal was $1 million or more.  In terms of the percentage
     owed by delinquent borrowers, the rate was about 34 percent for
     those who owed less than $200,000 and 93 percent for those who
     owed $1 million and over. 


--------------------
\3 Because of the timing of payments, the percentage owed by
delinquent borrowers fluctuates significantly during the year.  Most
loans have payments due on January 1.  Loans are not considered
delinquent until payments are 30 days late--that is, not made by
January 31, for most loans.  The percentage of delinquency is lowest
on December 31 and highest on January 31. 

\4 If a borrower was delinquent on any farm loan, the principal on
all farm loans held by the borrower was totaled to calculate the
amount owed by the delinquent borrower. 

\5 Economic emergency loans were made from 1978 through 1984 to allow
farmers to continue operations during a time when there was a serious
lack of agricultural credit or when the costs of production exceeded
the prices farmers received for their products. 


      FARM LOAN LOSSES
---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :0.2

  From fiscal year 1989 through the first half of fiscal year 1995,
     $12.4 billion in principal and interest was lost by reducing or
     forgiving the delinquent debt of direct loan borrowers, and
     about $300 million in losses was incurred on guaranteed loans. 

  Within the direct loan program, the highest losses occurred with
     the emergency disaster assistance loans-- $5.9 billion--followed
     by operating loans--$2.5 billion, economic emergency loans--$2.3
     billion, farm ownership loans--$1.6 billion, and other direct
     loans--$124 million. 

  The largest proportion of the direct loan losses--34
     percent--occurred with borrowers for whom CFSA lost between
     $200,000 and $499,999.  Borrowers for whom CFSA lost less than
     $200,000 accounted for 31 percent of the direct loan losses. 
     Borrowers for whom CFSA lost between $500,000 and $999,999
     accounted for 21 percent of the direct loan losses, and
     borrowers for whom CFSA lost $1 million or more accounted for 15
     percent of the direct loan losses. 


      NEW LOANS TO DELINQUENT
      BORROWERS
---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :0.3

  From fiscal year 1989 through the first 6 months of fiscal year
     1995, CFSA made about $448 million in new direct loans ($234
     million) and new guaranteed loans ($214 million) to borrowers
     after it had incurred losses on their previous farm loans.  As
     of March 31, 1995, about 42 percent of the direct loan borrowers
     were delinquent. 

  CFSA made an additional $130 million in loans from fiscal year 1989
     through the first 6 months of fiscal year 1995 under a
     congressionally directed policy that allows delinquent borrowers
     to obtain new direct loans for operating expenses.  As of March
     31, 1995, about 53 percent of these borrowers were delinquent. 

Section 1 of this report contains information on CFSA's total
outstanding principal and the amounts owed by delinquent borrowers. 
Section 2 presents information on the agency's losses from fiscal
year 1989 through the first 6 months of fiscal year 1995.  Section 3
contains information on loans to delinquent borrowers for the same
period.  In addition, as you requested, appendixes I through IV
provide analyses of various information presented in sections 1
through 3 on a state-by-state basis. 


---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :0.4

To prepare this report, we analyzed information from computerized
databases in CFSA's St.  Louis Finance Office.  We did not verify the
accuracy of the information contained in the agency's databases.  Our
work was performed from April through June 1995 in accordance with
generally accepted government auditing standards. 

We requested comments on a draft of this report from CFSA.  In a
meeting to discuss CFSA's comments, the Acting Deputy Administrator
for Farm Credit Programs and Farm Credit Program staff raised a
number of questions regarding how we presented some of our data and
the scope of our data.  We made changes to address their concerns and
provided the following clarifications: 

  The numbers reported in this report differ from the numbers that
     CFSA routinely reports.  This report lists information on the
     outstanding principal on active loans and excludes information
     on inactive loans, for example, loans that are involved in
     bankruptcy or foreclosure proceedings.  CFSA reports principal
     and interest on all loans. 

  This report lists information on the outstanding principal owed by
     delinquent borrowers on all loans held by those borrowers
     whether or not they are delinquent on all loans.  CFSA reports
     information on the delinquent loans and on past due principal
     and interest payments. 

  This report does not take into account the recovery value of
     security, nor does it reflect any future recovery value that may
     be realized by the sale or conveyance of real estate, chattels,
     and other types of security involved with losses due to debt
     write-downs and write-offs. 

  This report lists losses for a period beginning with fiscal year
     1989.  CFSA's predecessor agency had been prevented by judicial
     decisions in 1984 and 1987 from foreclosing on delinquent
     borrowers.  As a result, the losses since 1989 are probably
     higher than they would have been had the losses been spread out
     over the previous years when the foreclosure authority did not
     exist. 

As arranged with your offices, we are sending copies of this report
to the appropriate Senate and House Committees; interested Members of
Congress; the Secretary of Agriculture; the Administrator of CFSA;
the Director, Office of Management and Budget; and other interested
parties.  We will also make copies available to others upon request. 

Please contact me at (202) 512-5138 if you or your staff have any
questions.  Major contributors to this report are listed in appendix
V.

OUTSTANDING DEBT AND AMOUNT OWED
BY DELINQUENT BORROWERS
============================================================ Chapter 1

This section presents information on the Consolidated Farm Service
Agency's (CFSA) outstanding debt on active direct and guaranteed farm
loans and the amount owed by delinquent borrowers.\1 The amount of
debt held by borrowers who were delinquent in repaying direct and
guaranteed farm loans continues to be a significant portion of CFSA's
outstanding debt and totaled $5.8 billion, as of March 31, 1995. 


--------------------
\1 This report provides information on borrowers in CFSA's portfolio,
which the agency classifies as being active borrowers.  We excluded
information on inactive borrowers, such as those involved in
bankruptcy or foreclosure proceedings.  Additionally, information in
this report covers the outstanding principal on all loans held by
borrowers who are delinquent on any farm loan.  Information in this
report also does not take into account the recovery value of security
on the delinquent borrowers' debt, nor does it reflect any future
recovery value that may be realized by the sale or conveyance of real
estate, chattels, or other types of security involved with losses due
to debt write-downs and write-offs. 


   TOTAL OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL AND
   AMOUNT OWED BY DELINQUENT
   BORROWERS
---------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 1:1

As of March 31, 1995, the outstanding principal on CFSA's active farm
loans was about $17.8 billion, of which 32.6 percent, or $5.8
billion, was held by delinquent borrowers.  As table 1.1 shows, most
of the agency's delinquent borrowers are in the direct loan program,
where about 47 percent of the outstanding principal is owed by
delinquent borrowers.\2 In contrast, the guaranteed loan program has
less than 4 percent of outstanding principal owed by delinquent
borrowers.

--------------------
\2 Because of the timing of payments, the percentage owed by
delinquent borrowers fluctuates significantly during the year.  Most
loans have payments due on January 1.  Loans are not considered
delinquent until payments are 30 days late--that is, not made by
January 31, for most loans.  The percentage of delinquency is lowest
on December 31 and highest on January 31. 


   DIRECT LOANS
---------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 1:2

Outstanding principal on active loans in the direct loan portfolio
totaled about $11.9 billion on March 31, 1995.  The direct loan
portfolio comprises various types of outstanding loans, including
operating, farm ownership, emergency disaster, and economic emergency
loans.  CFSA makes direct operating loans of up to $200,000 for such
purposes as buying feed, seed, fertilizer, livestock, and farm
equipment; paying family living expenses; and refinancing existing
debt.  CFSA makes direct farm ownership loans of up to $200,000 for
purposes such as buying and improving farmland; constructing,
repairing, and improving farm buildings; and refinancing existing
debt.  CFSA makes emergency disaster loans of up to $500,000 per
disaster to farmers whose operations have been substantially damaged
by adverse weather or by other natural disasters.  CFSA made economic
emergency loans from 1978 through 1984 to allow farmers to continue
operations during a time when agricultural credit was seriously
lacking or when the costs of production exceeded the prices that
farmers received for their products. 

Although all types of direct loans have a considerable percentage of
outstanding principal owed by delinquent borrowers, some direct loans
have a higher percentage than others.  As shown in table 1.2, as of
March 31, 1995, farm ownership loans accounted for $4.7 billion in
outstanding principal, of which, 30.7 percent was owed by delinquent
borrowers.  Emergency disaster loans accounted for $3.2 billion in
outstanding principal, of which, 63.6 percent was owed by delinquent
borrowers.

\c Items may not add because of rounding. 

\d The total includes some borrowers who are counted more than once
because they have more than one type of loan. 

\e The total amount owed by delinquent borrowers differs from the
total in table 1.1, which covers all loans owed by delinquent
borrowers, including some loans for which the borrower is current on
payments. 

Source:  GAO's analysis of CFSA Finance Office records. 

The percentage of principal owed by delinquent borrowers varies
significantly within incremental ranges of debt owed.  As table 1.3
shows, of the $7.4 billion owed by borrowers with less than $200,000
in outstanding principal, 33.7 percent was held by delinquent
borrowers.  In contrast, of the $600 million owed by borrowers owing
$1 million or more in principal, 93.3 percent was owed by delinquent
borrowers.

   GUARANTEED LOANS
---------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 1:3

If farmers are unable to obtain credit from commercial sources
because their security or ability to meet repayment terms is somewhat
marginal, they can obtain credit from commercial lenders through
CFSA's guaranteed farm loan program.  CFSA provides guarantees for
operating loans, up to $400,000, and for farm ownership purposes, up
to $300,000.  In years past, CFSA also guaranteed other types of
loans, such as economic emergency and emergency livestock loans. 

In fiscal year 1984, CFSA's predecessor agency--the Farmers Home
Administration--began shifting emphasis from direct to guaranteed
loans in order to encourage private farm lending, reduce budget
outlays, and devote more effort to servicing its increasingly
delinquent direct loan portfolio. 

Guaranteed loans have performed better than direct loans.  As table
1.4 shows, of the almost $5.9 billion in outstanding guaranteed loan
principal as of March 31, 1995, only 3.6 percent was held by
delinquent borrowers.

outstanding guaranteed loan principal, as of March 31, 1995, was held
by borrowers who owed between $200,000 and $499,999.  Another $2.4
billion was held by borrowers who owed less than $200,000 in
outstanding principal.

   PERFORMANCE ON LOANS MADE IN
   RECENT YEARS
---------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 1:4

Significant delinquencies have occurred on loans made in recent
years, again, particularly in the direct loan portfolio.  Table 1.6
shows an outstanding principal in the direct loan program of about
$753 million for loans made during fiscal years 1989-93, of which,
39.5 percent was owed by borrowers who were delinquent in repaying
those specific loans as of March 31, 1995.  As shown earlier in table
1.1, the percentage owed by delinquent borrowers in the total active
direct loan portfolio was 46.8 percent.

FARM LOAN LOSSES
============================================================ Chapter 2

This section discusses losses that CFSA has incurred on farm loans. 
CFSA's losses in the direct and guaranteed loan programs were about
$12.7 billion in principal and interest from fiscal year 1989 through
the first 6 months of fiscal year 1995. 


   DIRECT AND GUARANTEED LOAN
   LOSSES
---------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 2:1

When borrowers experience trouble with repaying their loans, CFSA's
direct loan policies provide various types of loan servicing or
relief assistance that result in losses.  This assistance includes
two debt-relief options mandated by the Agricultural Credit Act of
1987 (P.L.  100-233, Jan.  6, 1988), namely, (1) reducing borrowers'
debts so that the borrowers can maintain viable farming
operations--referred to as restructuring with write-down and (2)
satisfying debts entirely by allowing borrowers to pay an adjusted
amount based on the value of collateral security that is less than
the outstanding debt--referred to as net recovery value buy-out with
write-off.\1 CFSA also has a third option when one of these two
approaches does not resolve a borrower's delinquency, namely, debt
settling with borrowers who are generally no longer farming by
writing off part or all of their unpaid loans. 

CFSA also incurs losses as a result of guaranteeing farm loans. 
Specifically, if a borrower defaults, CFSA agrees to reimburse a
commercial lender for up to 90 percent of the lost principal, accrued
interest, and liquidation costs. 

As table 2.1 shows, CFSA incurred losses of about $12.7 billion in
principal and interest from fiscal year 1989 through the first 6
months of fiscal year 1995--about $12.4 billion on direct loans and
about $300 million on guaranteed loans.  According to CFSA officials,
some losses in recent years involve loans that were made many years
ago.

--------------------
\1 Prior to the passage of this act, judicial decisions in 1984 and
1987 prevented CFSA's predecessor agency from foreclosing on
delinquent borrowers.  As a result, the losses since 1989 are
probably higher than they would have been had the losses been spread
out over the previous years when the foreclosure authority did not
exist. 


   DIRECT LOAN LOSSES
---------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 2:2

Considerable losses have occurred within the direct loan portfolio. 
About $8.5 billion, or 69 percent, of the $12.4 billion in direct
loan losses occurred under the debt-settlement process.  Table 2.2
provides information on the amount of losses experienced annually as
a result of each type of loan-servicing action.

Losses have occurred with all types of direct loans.  Table 2.3 shows
that emergency disaster loan losses accounted for $5.9 billion, or
47.3 percent, of total direct loan losses from fiscal year 1989
through the first 6 months of fiscal year 1995.  Also, nearly 35
percent of the direct loan borrowers for which losses occurred had
operating loans.

   GUARANTEED LOAN LOSS PAYMENTS
---------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 2:3

In addition to losses in the direct loan portfolio, losses occur when
borrowers default on farm loans that CFSA has guaranteed.  As shown
earlier in table 2.1, guaranteed loss payments of about $300 million
were made to commercial lenders from fiscal year 1989 through the
first 6 months of fiscal year 1995.  Table 2.6 presents an analysis
of guaranteed loan loss payments by year.

The greatest percentage of losses in the guaranteed loan program

   LOSSES ON RECENT LOANS
---------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 2:4

The data shown previously in this section discussed losses that
occurred within CFSA's farm loan portfolio from fiscal year 1989
through the first 6 months of fiscal year 1995.  These losses applied
to all loans in CFSA's portfolio, some of which had been made many
years ago.  However, losses are also occurring on loans made
recently.  As shown in table 2.9, 1,873 borrowers who received direct
loans during fiscal years 1989-93 subsequently benefitted from $62.7
million in write-downs and write-offs on those new loans, and new
guaranteed loans to 1,709 borrowers resulted in loss payments of
$108.9 million to be made to commercial lenders.

NEW LOANS TO DELINQUENT BORROWERS
============================================================ Chapter 3

This section discusses CFSA's (1) new direct and guaranteed loans to
borrowers for which losses were previously experienced and (2)
additional loans to borrowers who were delinquent when they received
new loans.  From fiscal year 1989 through the first 6 months of
fiscal year 1995, CFSA made $448 million in new direct and guaranteed
loans to borrowers who received debt relief on prior direct and
guaranteed loans.  Additionally, during this period, CFSA made $130
million in new direct loans, under a congressionally directed policy,
to borrowers who were delinquent when they received new loans. 


   BORROWERS WHO RECEIVED
   ADDITIONAL DIRECT AND
   GUARANTEED LOANS AFTER DEBT
   RELIEF
---------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 3:1

Borrowers who received debt relief under the debt-servicing
provisions of the Agricultural Credit Act of 1987 are not barred from
obtaining additional direct or guaranteed farm loans.  Additionally,
borrowers who have received debt settlements may also receive new
direct and guaranteed loans.  Furthermore, borrowers who defaulted on
previous guaranteed loans that resulted in losses can also obtain
additional guaranteed loans.  As shown in table 3.1, about 3,379
borrowers received new direct and guaranteed loans during fiscal year
1989 through the first 6 months of fiscal year 1995 after losses were
incurred on their prior delinquent loans.

Furthermore, many borrowers who obtained direct and guaranteed loans
after having received debt relief were delinquent as of March 31,
1995.  Of the borrowers who received these loans and who were still
CFSA clients, 41.8 percent of the direct loan borrowers and 1.5
percent of the guaranteed loan borrowers were delinquent. 


   CONTINUATION LOANS
---------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 3:2

Under the continuation policy, borrowers can obtain new direct
operating loans while they are delinquent on their existing direct
loan debt.  The purposes of the policy, which was established in
1982, were to continue lending money to financially stressed
borrowers until economic conditions improved and to slow the number
of liquidation cases.  Following our disclosure that many unsound
loans were being made, CFSA's predecessor agency rescinded the policy
in 1985.  However, the Congress directed the agency to reinstate the
continuation policy in 1987 (P.L.  100-71, July 11, 1987).  As table
3.2 shows, the agency made continuation loans totaling $130.3 million
to 2,084 delinquent borrowers during fiscal years 1989 through the
first 6 months of fiscal year 1995.

Of the 2,084 borrowers who received loans while they were delinquent,
from fiscal year 1989 through the first 6 months of fiscal year 1995,
787 subsequently had their delinquent debts serviced through one of
the three debt-servicing mechanisms.\1 Furthermore, as of March 31,
1995, 1,624 of the borrowers were still in the portfolio--of those,
53.4 percent were delinquent.

borrowers who are counted more than once because they have more than
one type of direct loan.  Table I.1 shows the discrete direct loan
borrowers per state. 

\c The total amount owed by delinquent borrowers for each state
differs from the total in table I.1, which covers all loans owed by
delinquent borrowers, including some loans for which the borrower is
current on payments. 

\d Includes Puerto Rico, the U.S.  Virgin Islands, and the Western
Pacific Island Territories.
