Eastern Companies Control Bulk of Iowa Farm Loans
Iowa Insurance Commissioner Charles R. Fischer says large eastern firms hold most farm loan commitments in the state while Iowa lenders issue few loans over 100 dollars per acre on top farms. At Sioux City banker R. B. Brubaker notes banks lack volume to service such loans as insurers offer longer terms. Fischer links rising Iowa land prices to the Korea War and warns against inflated purchases financed with mortgages, citing a $450 per acre farm mortgaged at $160 per acre with high taxes and payments yielding a negative long-term return.
