year can expect changes in the way lending agencies evaluate their credit applications according to Utah State University Extension economists Bruce Godfrey and Larry Bond Historically Godfrey and Bond say lenders based loans on a borrower’s net worth' or equity If a farmer had enough net worth a loan could be obtained However because of the farm crisis lenders generally emphasize repayment capacity which means they’re looking more now at cash flow and income statements “This change also places a burden of proof on the borrowers” Godfrey and Bond say “It will become almost imperative that farmers document the payoff expected from a loan” The USU agricultural economists say farmers should take special care to show lenders how and when a loan can be repaid If it can be shown that a loan will be profitable for a farmer loan terms are likely to be good Farmers unable to show repayment capacity will either be denied a loan or be faced with interest rates higher than on loans to farmers who can document repayment capacity' Production expenses for agricultural enterprises are expected to decline by uppercent in 1986 halting a ward trend says Lynn Davis Utah State University Extension economist "Farm prices are down so inputs that come from the farm such as feed grams are expected to be about 5 percent lower" Davis says "The cost ol manufactured inputs such as fertilizer should fall slightly” Dav is outlined the price outlook for several farm and ranch production expenses The cost of farm labor is expected to average about the same as in 1985 Interest rates on agricultural loans tend to follow' the prime rate which declined in 1985 and is expected to decline further in 1986 Troubles in the farm credit system have caused rates on loans from agencies within the system to remain high while some competing rates have declined Some farmers and ranchers aie refinancing when they can qualify for loans and Davis suggests that those in agriculture examine then financial positions to reduce their terest costs if possible The prices farmers and ranchers pay for gasoline diesel fuel electricity and lubricants will depend on OPF G policies and actions by the Public Service Commission OPEC is having trouble remaining unified and some analysts are lower oil prices But Davis says it is impossible to predict retail prices IVr budgeting he suggests using last yeai’s energy costs The supplies of phosphate and nitrogen fertilizers ate low and pi ices are expected to remain near 1985 levels Pi ices of pesticides and herbicides ate also expected to remain near 1985 levels But large vaiiations among specific chemicals should occur so Davis iceommends that farmer and ranchers analyze their needs and shop for the most efficient carefully economical products Seeds should be in adequate supply and prices should be stable arm and ranch real estate pi ices continue to fall but low farm pioduct prices make it difficult to buy land as an investment that will earn returns equal lo or greater than other alternative investments As a result Davis says the number of active buyers is small The Delta lire Department needs davtime luelighteis who live neat
