Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

““For something to be ‘proceeds’ of crops, ... it must be received upon their ‘sale, exchange, collection or other disposition’.” (Our emphasis added.)”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““Moreover, banks can easily avoid such potential losses of collateral by careful drafting (citation omitted), and we see no good reason to apply unjustifiably loose constructions to documents of this kind.””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“But the fact that the farmer ended up with bushels of corn to distribute cannot obscure the fact that PIK com is not a “crop” from that farmer’s land. Nor should the federal government’s intent in managing its agricultural programs or the broad economics of the transaction override the plain language of a security agreement which extends only to crops. The rationale of the transaction cannot cure clear deficiencies in the description of the collateral.”
