Highlight

A principal and its duly authorized agent may file an agricultural supplier's lien for agricultural supplies furnished to an agricultural producer.
An agricultural supplier's lien filed as a security interest created by contract to secure money advanced or loaned for any purposes is not effective to secure a priority over crop liens.
An agricultural supplier's lien cannot be obtained or enforced unless there has been substantial compliance with the statutory requirements for the lien.
An agricultural supplier may be entitled to a lien on crops if the agricultural supplier furnishes supplies to the producer within 120 days before the lien was filed and if the supplies were applied to crops in North Dakota.
