jd8850 - 10/29/2026 08:09 I must have been the exception then Always had crop insurance but bank never asked for assignment on it. And definitely wasnt self financed. The original post was about 25-30000 acres. I guess i didn't know you farmed that much back in the day. Thats a lot now. Even more impressive 30 years ago.
Pull your head out of your ____ , get some oxygen in the brain and actually think about what John said, because its 100% the truth. BTO is a relative term and has increased in size over the years just like everyone else.
Whether your bank is asking to be listed as a beneficiary on your crop insurance is between you and your bank (mostly your bank, you only have the option to go elsewhere), and depends on just how stretched you are. If you have less than 1 million in equity and ask for a 10 million operating loan chances are high they're going to want to be listed.
How do the BTO's get 25-35,000 acres?
