The 2023 planting season is just around the corner, and many have already started or completed their annual equipment maintenance regimen. It is also the perfect time to review your insurance coverage to ensure equipment is insured for your specific needs and purposes for the season. Having the proper coverage will get you back in the fields as quickly as possible.
The cost of farm inputs continues to increase into the 2023 planting season, and this includes equipment. Be sure to review your farm equipment lists to make sure all equipment is included as well as valued appropriately. Many farm blankets will have co-insurance so the full value of the blanket will be determined at the time of the loss and penalties applied if you are not insured to the percentage of value required in your policy. Some carriers have a limit on the value of the equipment allowed in the blanket, be sure to be aware of this limit and have specifically scheduled any items that exceed this amount.
There are a few key endorsements to help protect you throughout the policy period as well as the time of the loss. Be sure to review your policy for the following items:
