Insurance is something you hope you never need — but when you do, gaps can be costly.

We work with a variety of farms, ranches, feedlots and even breweries. Here are some of the most common insurances gaps we see:

• Outdated policies
• Changes to buildings, equipment, or payroll
• New risks that weren’t covered years ago

The challenge? You are an expert at running your operation, not tracking constant insurance changes. That’s where a regular coverage review can make a big difference.
Now is a good time to ask:

Does your insurance match how your operation runs today? If it doesn’t, give us a call for and in-depth insurance analysis at 1-877-466-9089.

🌾 Happy National Agriculture Day! 🌾

Today, we celebrate the farmers, ranchers, and agribusiness professionals who work tirelessly to feed our communities and fuel our economy. From early mornings to late nights, agriculture is built on dedication, resilience, and innovation.

Thank you for all you do — today and every day — to keep agriculture strong. 💚🚜

Happy National Ag Day!

Agriculture is part of your morning, every morning. From the milk in your coffee and the eggs on your plate, to the cotton in your clothes and the fuel in your drive to work, ag is everywhere.

It’s the wheat in your toast, the fruit in your smoothie, the leather in your shoes, and even the ingredients in your shampoo.

Today we celebrate the farmers, ranchers, and producers who make it all possible, and the everyday ways agriculture touches each of our lives.

🚜 On farms, near misses happen more often than we realize:

• A piece of equipment malfunctions
• A worker slips but catches themselves
• An animal reacts unexpectedly

Each one is a warning — and an opportunity.

✅ When near misses are shared, they become powerful safety training tools
✅ They help identify risks before someone gets seriously hurt
✅ They protect your people, your operation, and your bottom line

We encourage farms to treat near miss conversations as part of regular safety training — not blame, but learning. Every close call is a chance to strengthen safety practices and prevent the next incident from becoming a claim.

Let’s learn from what almost happened — so everyone goes home safe at the end of the day.

Stay tuned for more history on the actual near miss day!
