Farm Bureau urges capitalization rate near farm loan rates
Faun News reports the Iowa Farm Bureau calls for setting the capitalization rate for farmland income value near current loan rates. Glenn Taylor says federal land bank loans at 4.2 percent and private insurers at 8 percent guide rates, stressing rate reflects income value not sale value. Dr. William G. Murray notes rate links to investment return, with half of farmland value based on use and productivity surveys by Iowa State University. The other half reflects fair market value at current use, under the new assessment law.
