Farmer Mac flagged yield-curve volatility as a catalyst for agricultural lenders to intensify summer borrower outreach on refinancing or restructuring.
Treasury yields rose sharply across maturities in 2026; 1-year climbed to 4.11% by July 23 from about 3.5% on March 2.
Long-end rates also moved higher; 10-year reached 4.67% from near 4.2%, 30-year rose to 5.15% from just under 4.8%.
Forward Treasury yields implied the rate cycle may not have peaked; markets priced roughly 15 basis points or more increases over coming years.
Analysis pointed to higher borrowing costs risk for producers, urging lenders to address loans repricing this fall before rates move higher.
