I have a bad feeling he will come out of this looking like a rose, while the average guy that can use a combine, tractor or sprayer for more than 250 hours will have his financial records gone over with a fine tooth comb.

While it may be hard to believe , I remember the last time this happened on a smaller scale , and those same type of guys are doing quite well after getting their debts written down on land and equipment that was one tenth the price of today.

There are a lot of social media podcast types that had monette on their shows, maybe they should invite him on again to explain the issues.

Using high input costs as an excuse - is the same for everyone.

Monette was supposed to be insured for revenue - so what happened to revenue insurance coverage????
