Innovative farmers have been producing renewable energy using byproducts such as walnut hulls and methane for years, and their efforts to earn credits from utility companies for some of that energy could soon become easier.
A bill passed by the Legislature would allow farmers to connect on-farm renewable-energy systems together and then connect them to the grid. Previously, only solar, wind and fuel cell generators have had a streamlined path to connect.

If you would like information on how Scurich Insurance can help your Agriculture Business!
Make your home looked “lived in” even when you’re not there!
Have a trusted neighbor pick up your mail and newspapers.
Arrange for someone to mow your lawn or shovel snow.
Ask a neighbor to park a car in your driveway while you’re gone.
Never advertise your absence by taping a note to your door or announcing it on your answering machine/voice mail.
Turn your telephone ringer down or off. This way a burglar is less likely to hear the ringing of unanswered calls and realize no one is home.
You can add to the security of your lighting system and cut your electric bill by installing a motion detector on outside lights. This will activate your lights when anyone comes within range of the unit’s motion sensor.

The biggest difference between Whole Life Insuranceand Term Life Insurance is the length of time you are insured for. With Whole Life Insurance you are insured for your entire life. With Term Life Insurance you are insured for a specified period of time, that expires by a certain age (usually 75) and if you have not died there is no payout. Some sound Whole Life Insurance advice is to explore both options carefully.
Whole life premiums are higher than term life; however, you are also covered for your entire life. With term life each time the term renews the premiums go up so in the end it costs more than whole life. Some good Whole Life Insurance advice is to compare premium rates between different providers.
