At Hitchings Insurance, we understand the unique challenges and rewards that come with owning and operating a farm. While the land itself is a source of immense pride, it’s also an investment that needs careful protection. That’s where farmland insurance comes in.

Think of farmland insurance as a sturdy fence post, keeping your legacy safe from unforeseen threats. It’s not just about protecting the soil and crops, but also the structures, equipment, and even the financial well-being of your operation.

Here’s what you can expect from a comprehensive farmland insurance policy:

  • Property Coverage: This covers your farmhouse, barns, storage sheds, and other agricultural structures in case of fire, theft, vandalism, or weather events. It can also extend to cover specialized equipment like grain bins, irrigation systems, and even fencing.
  • Liability Protection: Accidents happen, even on the most well-maintained farms. Farmland insurance can provide coverage if someone gets injured on your property, or if your livestock damages a neighbor’s crops.
  • Loss of Income: A natural disaster or fire can disrupt your farming operation for months. Farmland insurance can help replace lost income during this critical time, ensuring your financial stability through these setbacks.
  • Additional Coverages: Depending on your specific needs, you may want to consider additional coverage for specific risks:
    • Pollution Liability: In the event of an accidental environmental spill, farmland insurance can help cover cleanup costs and potential fines.
    • Crop Insurance: This specialized coverage helps ensure financial security in the event of crop damage due to unpredictable weather conditions, pests, or disease.
