Commercial Farm/Ranch
Commercial Lines
Your farming business is your investment. Helping you safeguard it is our commitment.
Farming isn’t like other commercial businesses, so our coverage is tailored specifically to your needs.
Farm Buildings & Dwellings
Farm buildings, whether they are hundred-year-old implement sheds or state-of-the-art dairy barns, they both face unique hazards and have insurance needs. We use the most up-to-date evaluation methods to help make sure your coverage is sufficient, but ultimately the best policy comes from understanding what you want out of your coverage: how have your needs changed since the building was built, and if you had to, how would you want to rebuild?
Machinery & Equipment
What would it take to get you up and running again? Sometimes the answer is simple; sometimes it isn’t. Equipment values can fluctuate widely, making it very important to regularly review the limits of your insurance. Large, highly integrated operations can face unique challenges sourcing equipment, making a claim not just about the lost property itself but also the cost of your downtime. And, of course, machinery doesn’t have to come on wheels – heaters, coolers & compressors are all examples of machinery where a badly timed breakdown can have devastating consequences. Whether you’re an existing client or just looking for a second opinion, we’re always ready to talk through your questions and concerns and work to make sure your policy offers the protection you need.
Livestock & Produce
Animal mortality and the liability risk posed by animal escape are some of the most regular losses a farm or ranch can suffer. We are proud to insure farms that utilize world-leading genetics in their breeding operations, and we understand the scale of investment required to operate at that level. We work with several insurers that offer a range of blanket and specified coverages that can be tailored to reflect the risks you face. From seed to shipping, the lifecycle of your farm’s produce extends far beyond its growing season. Let us help make sure that the value of your work is protected in the event of a loss. For operations with large produce in storage, we offer monthly reporting – there’s no need to pay for coverage off-season, and we understand that it’s hard to predict the outcome of any given harvest before it’s even planted. Let us know how it progresses, and we can adjust the values accordingly.
General Liability
Farms can be complex and dangerous properties, even to people familiar with their operation. From risks with the use of public roads for moving equipment, produce, and livestock, to farms with on-site stores that offer public tours or that encourage volunteer help, liability risks are as unique as farms themselves. Your general liability insurance is there to protect you in the event of a lawsuit, which makes us partners in risk management. We’re here to help, and that starts with making sure you’re properly insured.
Pollution Liability
This vital coverage is designed to protect your agricultural operations from the financial impact of environmental incidents. Our policy safeguards you against unforeseen pollution events, such as accidental chemical spills, pesticide runoff, waterway and airborne pollution, and other contaminations, ensuring your farm’s ongoing sustainability. We understand that every farm is unique, so our expert team works with you to customize your coverage, addressing your specific risks and needs. Our goal is to provide you with peace of mind, knowing that your hard work and investment in the land is well protected. Trust Crewson Insurance to be your reliable partner in preserving the environment and maintaining the viability of your farming business for generations to come.
