Subdivision 1. Selling not subject to lien.

Subd. 2. Selling subject to lien. A commission merchant or selling agent selling farm products for another person is subject to a farm product statutory lien applicable to the purchased farm products if the lienholder has perfected the farm products statutory lien and:

(2) the commission merchant or selling agent has registered with the secretary of state as provided in section 336A.11, the commission merchant or selling agent receives a notice from the secretary of state specifying that the seller and the farm products being sold are subject to a lien notice, and the commission merchant or selling agent fails to secure a waiver or release of the farm products statutory lien specified in the lien notice by making a payment, satisfying an obligation, or otherwise.
