Mtcat: you didn't read the article I posted as it did say that is what it was for but it still used government LOANS. I don't see what all the fuss is about. We as farmers have been getting government money for years and no one on here seems to complaining about that! I am just as guilty as everyone else. So until you drop your government funded crop insurance, if you think it is not government funded ask your insurance agent how much your premiums would be with out the government help, and all of the there payments the government hands out to farmers. QUIT COMPLAINING!!! Spring is just around the corner and then we can back in the fields.
