What too many fail too understand when it comes to renting land. The tenant has an obligation to trim all the fat out of the COP to be able to pay the land owner more than others who operate with too much fat in their farm operation. Over priced seed, inputs, and machinery costs of a tenant is of no benefit to the land owner and ends up being a liability to the land owner's ROI
.
And this is what’s wrong with subsidizing crop insurance. Everyone wants cash rent now because there’s no risk to allow for, and so landlords end up thinking every dollar on the table should be theirs.
It shouldn’t be any of the landlords business what a farmer spends on equipment or family living. Especially when you consider off farm income, the landlord is certainly crossing a line thinking they can dictate what lifestyle their tenants may have.
Those who rent money require financial info.
