Agricultural Banks in the US - Industry Market Research Report

Agricultural Banks in the US

The industry has a strong run of year-over-year growth through the end of 2023 up until the onset of the pandemic. Normally, a financially distressed Agricultural sector would cause industry revenue to climb, but the Federal Reserve dropping interest rates to near-zero in response to the pandemic and the staggering amount of fiscal aid provided to farmers via the United States Department of Agriculture Emergency Food Purchasing Plan and the Paycheck Protection Plan has greatly reduced farmers' demand for agricultural loans. This simultaneously caused revenue to decline in 2020 and show tepid growth in 2021. Overall, industry revenue shrank at a CAGR of 1.1% to reach $20.5 billion through the end of 2023, including expected growth of 8.1% in 2023 alone, as government stimulus dwindles.

Operators in this industry specialize in lending to the agricultural sector. More specifically, banks in this industry dedicate at least 18.3% of their total loans to agriculture.
