Texas banks were provid-
ing farmers and ranchers with
more credit and other financial
services than any other lenders
at the beginning of this year,
according to S. R. Jones, Jr.,
President, Texas Bankers As-
sociation and President, First
Pasadena State Bank. Pasade-
na. During 1966, the banks
maintained their leadership in
agricultural credit services.
Based on the 26th annual
farm lending summary of the
Agricultural Committee of the
American Bankers Association,
Mr. Jones reported that at the
beginning of the year, Texas
banks were helping farmers and
ranchers with $744 million in
loans, five per cent more than a
year previous. This total in-
cluded $618 million in produc-
tion loans and $126 million in

By September 1, harvest was complete in the
Coastal Bend, and nearing completion along
j.he Upper Coast and Rio Grande Valley where
^ome gins are already closed for the seasc-n.
Stripping was approximately three-fifths com-
plete in Districts 8-N and 10-N on September 1
and approximately a third complete in the
Blacklands. First bales have been ginned in
some counties on the Southern High Plains.
Yields in the Blacklands and South and South-
■’ +central Texas arc poor. Most of the acreage
in these areas suffered from a lack of mois-
ture during droughty summer months. A heavy
buildup of insects also seriously reduced
yield prospects. Cotton in the Upper Coast,
Coastal Bend and Rio Grande Valley produced
good yields.

Good yields are in prospects for both dryland
and irrigated cotton on the Low and High
Plains. The crop is late in these areas, how-
ever, and hot weather is needed to help mature
the crop before frost. The last two weeks of
August was not favorable for normal cotton
growth. Insects infestation is spotty to
heavy on the Low Plains and light on the High
Plains. All irrigation has been discontinued
as moisture supplies are adequate to mature
the crop.

Improved yield prospects during August partic-
uiarily in the northwest and better than ex-
pected turnout in the Upper Coast and Rio
.Grande Valley more than offset reduced ex-
pectations in the Blacklands. Yield is ex-
pected to average 363 pounds per harvested
acre compared with 3^5 pounds for 1966.

by farmers and ranchers, ac-
cording to Mr. Jones, has been
accompanied by a substantial
gain in the total assets of farm
and ranch families. Therefore,
in the aggregate, the equity
position of farmers and ran-
chers, contrary to public opi-
nion , is being maintained at
a satisfactory level. National-
ly, farm and ranch families
have $228 billion of their own
funds invested in agriculture.
This represents 83 per cent of
the total capital requirements
of farmers and ranchers.
Mr. Jones stressed the im-
portance of farmers, ranchers
and bankers working closely to
improve farm and ranch fi-
nancial arrangements. He re-
ported that nine out of ten in-
sured banks through out the
country had agricultural loans
mortgages. I outstanding, with nearly 88 per

duction credit extended by lend- 1 tending credit to farm and ranch
ing institutions to Texas far- people,
mers and ranchers came from
banks.
Mr. Jones said that “Bank-
ers in Texas are conscious of
the large capital investments
required in agriculture today
and are making a concerted ef-
fort through improved lending
programs to meet these chang-
ing credit demands of the state’s
farmers and ranchers.”
