Throughout the ages, farmers have faced challenges with the weather, soil conditions, seed fertility, plant diseases, pests, economy crashes, and many other variables. With all the hardships farmers face, it\u2019s incredible there are so many strong people who still choose this vocation, and we have those hard workers to thank for the abundance of food in supermarkets and grocery stores across the country.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, many farmers still face extreme financial hardship, and it\u2019s no surprise that many find themselves deep in significant debt connected to their crop, livestock, or fishing operations. If you\u2019re having difficulties as a family farmer or fisher, Behm Law Group, Ltd. can help you find your way out of severe debt by filing for Chapter 12 bankruptcy in Mankato, MN.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With the large spread of farmland dotting the countryside between Mankato and other cities in southern Minnesota, there are many local people living in our communities that took on farming as a profession. Unfortunately, this year has marked a rise of farm debts, not just in Minnesota, but across the Midwest as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Farm Debts Are on the Rise<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes described as a \u201c<u><a href=\"http:\/\/www.winonapost.com\/Article\/ArticleID\/61850\/Slow-bleed--farm-bankruptcies-rise\">slow bleed<\/a><\/u>\u201d of independent farms in the face of low dairy, crop, fish, and meat prices, the debts of family farmers and fishers are not matched by the income they receive from product sales. When independent farms are higher in geographic concentration, as they often are, the trickle of each small farmer\u2019s debts turns into a river of severe financial crisis. If this happens to a community, no matter how widespread, bankruptcy is a highly valuable solution. When farmers and fishers take advantage of the assistance filing for Chapter 12 bankruptcy provides, it serves as a true system of recovery and healing for agricultural communities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chapter 12 Bankruptcy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 12 bankruptcy is a debt relief option offered to family farmers and fishers who earn over 50% of their income from agricultural or fishing operations. If you file for Chapter 12, you are provided with a system of bankruptcy that reorganizes and restructures your debts in a manageable repayment plan suited to your income. This bankruptcy repayment plan is spread over a period of three to five years and allows for fluctuations in your income with the growing and harvest seasons. Not only does Chapter 12 give farmers and fishers a way to repay their debts without losing their land, home, agricultural equipment, and overall livelihood, it also provides protection against creditor harassment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Farm debt may be on the rise due to several conditions in the food industry today, but there are solutions.
