§ 55634 Farm Product Processor Liens

• •If a farmer gives their crops to a processor (like a factory that turns wheat into flour), the farmer can still have a claim on those crops even if they're mixed with other crops.
• •This claim stays even if the processor stores the crops in a warehouse, no matter if the warehouse gives out receipts for loans or not.
• •The farmer's claim covers the raw crops and any processed version of them (like flour from wheat).

A farmer sells wheat to a mill to make flour. The mill mixes the wheat with other wheat and stores the flour in a big warehouse.

The farmer still has a right to that flour, even if it's mixed with other flour or stored somewhere else. This means if the mill doesn't pay the farmer, the farmer can claim their share of the flour.
