threshing or hulling grain or seeds or in the plowing, disking, or

picking, or baling of crops has a lien upon the grain or seed threshed
or hulled with the machine or upon the crops produced or prepared

baling, or picking to secure payment to the owner or operator of the
machine or tool by the owner of the crops produced or partially
produced by the service, as may be agreed upon.
(b) If the charges for the services referred to in subsection (a) are
not agreed upon, the amount of the lien must equal charges that are
reasonable for the work.
(c) The owner or operator of the machine must file in the proper
place specified in IC 26-1-9.1-501 a financing statement giving
notice of the lien. The notice must designate the following:

(5) The date on which the work was done.

(2) ten (10) days after the completion of the work if the work
was combining, baling, or picking.
(e) If the party for whom the work was done desires to sell or
deliver the crops, the party must notify the consignee or purchaser
that the account for service of the machine has not been paid, and the
lien given on the crops shifts from the crops to the purchase price of
the crops in the hands of the purchaser or consignee specified.
(f) If the crops are sold or consigned with the consent and
knowledge of the party entitled to a lien on the crops, the lien does
not attach to the crops or to the purchase price of the crops unless:
(1) the party entitled to the lien personally notifies the
purchaser of the lien; and
(2) the sale is made within the ten (10) day period immediately
following the date of the performance of the work.
This lien may be enforced as other liens are enforced. As added by P.L.2-2002, SEC.18.
