With the imminent onset of logging happening on my property, I'm starting to look at insurance options for the parcel since it won't be covered under my personal umbrella attached to my homeowners policy as vacant land if I'm operating as a business venture off it.
What are some things I should be aware of when setting up a farm policy, and what kind of rates will I be looking at?
My agent had to defer to underwriting before being able to give me any info when we broached the subject today while I was inquiring about how to accurately insure my soon-to-be dump truck, which will be for personal use, but stored on the farm.
I know a couple of you guys are agents, so maybe we could air this out for everyone's benefit when looking at protecting our asse(t)s. :)
One thing in particular that'd be nice to talk about is what kind of risk and coverage would be needed for "load your own" firewood sales? The Mrs. seems to be freaked out about that idea, when someone pulling a muscle because they tossed too much wood is hardly something you could blame me for.
