What happens if a storm damages my chicken houses? +
Report the claim by contacting our claims specialists. They respond quickly, assess the damage, and help you get back up and running. The policy responds on a replacement cost coverage basis, to replace your buildings at the cost to replace with like kind and quality in today’s dollars (roof age determines replacement cost coverage on roofs or actual cash value) The policy also offers Business Interruption Coverage, that will cover your lost income and extra expenses you incur to get your farm back in business.
My roof is more than 15 years old. Can I still join?
Yes – you can still join. However, we would pay the cost for you to replace your roof less any depreciation. The good news: if you replace roofs that are 16 years of age and older at anytime during the policy period you would qualify for Replacement Cost Coverage without any depreciation applied post loss.

I just built a new chicken house. Is it covered?
Yes, newly acquired or newly constructed houses are covered for a limited time automatically if you do not report them to the program manager. However, after 120 days you will not have coverage on the house if you do not contact the program manager and report the new house to your statement of values and start paying premium on the newly acquired location or newly constructed house.
Do I need to speak insurance language to talk to you?
No. Our team talks in plain English. They will not use big words. They will not rush you. Ask any question — even if it sounds simple. We are here to help.
