Although since it is not an interest-bearing account, the funds are kind of tied up from the agistor's point of view and not available to earn any money just sitting in an account. Also, it is not possible to reinvest them into additional animals, although I guess the logic there is you might as well pay off what you owe first. I am not sure if an escrow account is a tax shelter or not. If it is, then it would be a benefit to the agistor in that the sale of a cria would result in capital gains taxes. Isn't that correct?
