FARM AND AGRICULTURE INSURANCE

Farmowners

The variety and complexity of modern farming operations demands a lot from a standard insurance product. While agriculture is increasingly dominated by large commercial operations, most farms are still family-owned with a residence on the premises.

AAIS led the way by introducing a Farmowners Program with modular components designed to make it easy to structure coverage for any type of farm operation--family, corporate, or specialty.

Equipment breakdown coverage options were developed in conjunction with The Hartford Steam Boiler Inspection and Insurance Company, but can be used with other reinsurers as well. Information on the options is found in a press release announcing the filing.

This program includes:

  • Five dwelling forms: basic perils, broad perils, open perils-dwelling, open perils-dwelling and contents, and tenants

  • Dwelling coverages and rating information analogous to those in a standard homeowners program

  • One streamlined form for covering farm structures and scheduled and/or unscheduled farm property

  • Four options for liability coverage: AAIS farm personal, AAIS farm commercial, AAIS general commercial, or any industry CGL (A policy can also be written for property coverage only.)

  • The industry's only standard endorsement option for insuring home-based businesses under a farmowners policy

"We converted to the AAIS Farmowners Program as we found more and more of our competitors using it. The form is easy to read and the coverages fit our risks well. We are thrilled with the new options.

"Your staff has been invaluable in explaining the rationale behind the policy construction and the coverages. It's been great to have access to someone who has experience in the farm insurance industry."
