I've been in exactly that situation.
'Had to force land a single seat taildragger in a crop of knee high barley. The wheel tracks were only 40 paces long, but managed to stay right side up as the landing was on an up-gradient.
The farmer was mainly concerned that damage would be done retrieving the aircraft. He had once had a glider retrieve from one of his fields, the glider had done minimal damage, but the van and trailer used for the retrieve managed to flatten about half an acre.
I gave him my insurance details, but as we did no further damage getting the aircraft out (by trailer), I didn't hear any more from him.
