Inhaltsangabe

Understand how farmers can stretch debt payments without sacrificing their land or income. This clear, data-driven analysis shows how capacity to pay varies across farm ownership, income levels, and debt, and why some groups struggle more than others.

This edition examines the capacity to pay from earnings, debt ratios, and how different repayment plans fit a borrower’s ability to pay. It explains how mortgage terms can be tailored to protect earnings and support land ownership, with practical guidance drawn from the Illinois grain and livestock sectors.


  • How net cash income, cash expenses, and interest shape repayment power

  • Differences in repayment capacity among owners, part owners, and tenants

  • Debt-to-property ratios that limit or enable farm expansion

  • Three mortgage plans that align loan length with borrowers’ capacity to pay



Ideal for readers of agricultural economics, farm finance history, or policy work on rural credit and land ownership.
