What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Anhydrous ammonia is a widely used nitrogen fertilizer that is also hazardous to handle, so Tennessee requires a permit before anyone deals in it. As a condition of that permit, the dealer files a $1,000 bond with the Department of Agriculture under T.C.A. § 43-11-304.
The bond guarantees compliance with the anhydrous ammonia fertilizer law and rules — covering the sale, handling, and installation of the equipment used with the product. It is a three-party arrangement among you (the principal), the surety, and the State of Tennessee (the obligee).
The same statute separately requires the dealer to show financial responsibility — evidence of at least $25,000 in insurance, or a separate bond up to that amount. The $1,000 permit bond here is the compliance guarantee; the financial-responsibility piece is a distinct requirement. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.
