Thanks for your response but you didn't address the Turbo Tax issue with entering the 1099. I'm totally aware of how crop insurance proceeds are taxed and that they can be deferred. The issue is a TurboTax programming issue that they are finally working on. So if anyone else encounters this issue, it is a program bug, not an operator error.
In the meantime, I did find a work around. The 1099-Misc entry area that is not on the Farm Rental entry screen has a Box 9 that the payments can be entered in. Then the deferral can be entered under Crop Insurance proceeds on the Farm Rental input area for Crop Insurance not reported on 1099-MIsc. This method gets right amounts in the right places on Form 4835.
