Farmland loans are secured by agricultural land. Call reports show them separately from operating loans to farms.
Call reports give one balance per institution, not by state, and they carry balances, not loans made. The figure shown is the whole institution's book.
Growth appears only where a book grew over the 12 months. Each lender's own page has its full record.
A lender counts here if it holds farmland loans on its books at the latest filing and has an office in Illinois. Lenders that merged or stopped filing are left out.
Source and date appear beside each figure. Banks report balances, not loans made. Loans made come only from HMDA and SBA files. We do not audit filings and can make errors joining them. Report a problem
Figures come from public records and show the source and date beside them. Public records can be late, incomplete or wrong. A past loan does not mean a lender will make the same kind of loan today. Confirm anything important with the lender.
