Insurance Solutions for Farm & Agriculture
Every farm, no matter how unique, typically requires a diverse range of insurance coverage.
Some essential coverage you may need includes –
Protection for your farm structures. Farms usually consist of various buildings, including barns, storage facilities, and your home.
- Vehicle insurance. You’ll need coverage for your trucks, trailers, and farming equipment.
- Liability insurance. Just like any other business, it’s crucial to have protection in case someone files a lawsuit due to accidents on your property or injuries sustained while working on your farm.
- Coverage for your livestock and crops. Since your animals and crops are essential to your operation, having insurance to safeguard them against damage is vital.
- Business interruption insurance. If an unforeseen event, like a fire, disrupts your farming activities, this coverage can help support your family until you’re back on your feet.

Do I need year round coverage if my farm only operates seasonally?
If your farm operates seasonally, you might not need year-round coverage for all aspects of your farm. Instead, you can consider Peak Season Coverage, which increases your protection during the busiest times when your farm’s assets are at their highest. This type of coverage is cost-effective and customizable, allowing you to specify the start and end dates of your peak season
It ensures that your crops, livestock, equipment, and other assets are fully protected during critical periods without paying for increased coverage during off-peak times.
