Subject: RE: cornstalk fire need input


Thumb of Michigan
We've had a couple of fires. Always accidental, but there are some agronomic costs associated with a fire. Especially in no-till. How much $ is always subject to debate, but the neighbor won't have a problem getting something from insurance if he's inclined.

I believe that the real loss is on future crops, not always the next one. We've measured a yield increase the first year of a fire, with subsequent yield reductions in following years. Way too many variables to say that its always worth X $. With that said, insurance companies are usually pretty easy to get along with on a current right now issue. No way will they account for future loss.
