From a loss standpoint, there's some changes going forward for 2026 where it's going to include if you have prevent plant, your multi-parallel losses, and these area plans, all those together, if you get above a $200,000 loss with the combination of any of those components, you are under review.
And precision is the easiest way to have good records for that proving up your historical items.
You know, being an insurance employee and buying from the company I work for, I'm in an audit at any time.
Quite honestly, I don't even know the audits happen because it's all done behind the scenes.
And that, you know, we put everything through a grain cart scale.
So we post calibrate the combine to make sure it's as tight as possible.
Heck, I measure everything out of the bend, and I'm always within a point to point and a half after it's had the bend fans run on it for weeks after it's went in too.
So I can't stress enough the importance of looking at precision if you're not doing it today, especially as farms get larger.
These large operations, and bends aren't getting any smaller.
I mean, you've got a nice bend here behind you.
They're not getting any smaller, are they?
I am.
I'm reminiscing of all the toys I have hidden in my basement because they're not on display like this is.
You're going to have to start bringing them out.
My kids are old enough.
I can bring my toys out now.
I do.
Yep.
My wife and I, along with my dad, we farm just short of 1,800 acres up in Blue Earth, Minnesota.
Yeah.
