Many farm and ranch operations are hybrids and combine the exposures arising from personal activity to the commercial operations of the farm or ranch. As a result, most insurers offer products specifically designed for farm and ranch operations that cover both exposures. Some items to consider are property coverage for the dwelling and farm buildings, inland marine coverage on the machinery and equipment used in the operation, accounts receivable and personal property. Other items to consider include liability coverage for farm or ranch, personal exposures, automobile liability and physical damage coverage, boiler, machinery and similar equipment coverage for the facility, and crop/hail or similar crop insurance coverage. Finally, coverage for silos and grain storage elevators and their contents, as well as coverage for all forms of livestock, must also be considered. The increasing number of corporate farms has led to the development and introduction of farm commercial products such as the agricultural output policy.
