Tell Global Ag **** Solutions to take their sales pitch and shove it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did you have a claim last year? The bright side is BASF will still give you a rebate

Maybe they hired some new actuarials?

[bgmb]

Maybe they got you sucked in and signed up now time to tighten down the screws.

Apparently they think farmers are more mathematically challenged chumps than we thought. I listened to the presentation at a farm show a while back and thought there ain't no way a halfway competent farmer will collect on this and now there is triple the premium?

[farmaholic]

Ok, when you commit to a contract is it multi-year? Can't you just say ****-it?

[bgmb]

That would be the obvious decision if premium is tripling!

[Grahamp]

That seems hard to believe. I haven't got a quote but I think most people were in that 12-16 per acre for 200 inputs and 100 margin. Tripling would be 35-50 per acre. They won't sell an acre at that number

I guess you just got the polite answer that they do not want you in their program anymore. That is ridiculous and I would be out of that program.
