Wayne Cryts is a former Missouri farmer who protested against American grain elevator bankruptcy law in the early 1980s. At the time, farmers who stored crops in a grain elevator did not retain an ownership interest in the crops if the elevator company went bankrupt. Cryts worked with 500 other farmers to remove his soybeans from a bankrupt grain elevator, leading to his arrest. In response, the United States Congress passed legislation modifying the relevant law. Cryts later ran for Congress twice, but lost both times.
