Farm and Ranch Insurance
A basic Texas farm and ranch insurance policy can be compared to an extended “homeowner’s policy” for farm or ranch owners. We help farmers and ranchers in every situation possible in regard to their insurance needs – tailoring the policy with acre-by-acre protection. Many insurance companies will allow clients to customize their farm and ranch policies to cover perils, however, the basic farm and ranch policy typically covers the following instances:
- Loss of your home or certain types of damage to your home.
- Loss of your barn or outbuildings or certain types of damage to your barn or outbuildings.
- Accidental death of your stock caused by lightning, fire, predator attack, accidental shooting, or drowning.
- Liability claims brought by third parties who are on your property with your permission and the incident did not happen in connection with your equine business operations.
