Don’t let natural disasters, machinery breakdowns, accidents, or illness cost your business. Get tailored insurance cover for your farm with CIA and secure its future.
Farm insurance is a type of insurance that protects all operations, assets, and produce in agricultural operations. Typically used by farmers, it's highly popular in countries like Australia, where natural disasters such as floods and bushfires are common occurrences.
Farm insurance can cover buildings and properties, livestock, products, and equipment, among others. Whether you’re a large-scale crop grower or a hobby farm owner, having farm insurance is essential for safeguarding your operations and ensuring financial stability.

Case Study: Why A Farm Insurance Cover
Makes All The Difference
Scenario
Jason owns a wheat farm in western New South Wales. As a farmer with a strong reputation among suppliers, he takes pride in his work and owns multiple expensive farming equipment and vehicles. One night, a fire from a faulty electrical circuit breaks out in one of his sheds, destroying a tractor and a ute. Additionally, the fire has also caused some damage to his shed, which now needs repairing.
Jason’s farm insurance allows him to claim the cost of replacing both vehicles after the fire. Additionally, he can claim the repairs to his shed along with its damaged contents.
Unfortunately, Jason will have to use his farm revenue, and maybe his own savings, to cover the costs of repairs and replacement. This has placed him in a significant financial strain for the months ahead.
