The unrealized losses presented above are principally due to a general widening of market spreads and changes in the levels of interest rates from the dates of acquisition to September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, as applicable. The resulting decrease in fair values reflects an increase in the perceived risk by the financial markets related to those securities. As of both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, all of the investment securities in an unrealized loss position either were backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government or had credit ratings of at least "AA+."

Securities in unrealized loss positions for 12 months or longer have a fair value as of September 30, 2021 that is, on average, approximately 98.8% of their amortized cost basis. Farmer Mac believes that all of these unrealized losses are recoverable within a reasonable period of time by way of maturity or changes in credit spreads.

The amortized cost, fair value, and weighted-average yield of available-for-sale investment securities by remaining contractual maturity as of September 30, 2021 are set forth below. Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are included based on their final maturities, although the actual maturities may differ due to prepayments of the underlying assets.

The unrealized losses presented above are principally due to changes in interest rates from the date of acquisition to September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, as applicable. The unrealized losses on the held-to-maturity USDA Securities as of both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 reflect their increased cost basis resulting from their transfer to held-to-maturity as of October 1, 2016.

The unrealized losses from AgVantage securities were on 11 available-for-sale securities as of both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. There were 8 and 2 held-to-maturity AgVantage securities with an unrealized loss as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 2 and 7 available-for-sale AgVantage securities, respectively, had been in a loss position for more than 12 months.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, Farmer Mac had no sales of Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities or USDA Securities and, therefore, Farmer Mac realized no gains or losses.

The amortized cost, fair value, and weighted-average yield of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity Farmer Mac Guaranteed Securities and USDA Securities by remaining contractual maturity as of September 30, 2021 are set forth below. The balances presented are based on their final maturities, although the actual maturities may differ due to prepayments of the underlying assets.
