security interest created by the debtor,

including the amount of the products where

applicable, crop year, county, and a reasonable

description of the property;

(c) must be amended in writing, within ten (10) days,

similarly signed and transmitted, to reflect material

changes;

(d) will lapse on the expiration period of the statement,

or the transmission of a notice signed by the secured

party that the statement has lapsed, whichever occurs

first; and

(e) states any payment obligations imposed on the buyer of

farm products, commission merchant, or selling agent

by the secured party as conditions for waiver or
