Crop insurance proceeds
Taxable
Can You Write Off Crop Insurance Proceeds?
Short answer: Crop insurance payments are taxable, but you can elect to defer them to the next year if you normally sell crops then.
Farmers report on Schedule F; ordinary farm costs are deductible, and equipment can be expensed with Section 179 or bonus depreciation.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, 1099s or W-2s, a mileage log, and a note of the business purpose. W-2 employees should ask about employer reimbursement.
