Protecting Farmers - A Hartford tradition Since 1916

Seeing the importance of animals and crops to a farmers livelihood, The Hartford began insuring Livestock in 1916 and Crops in the 1930's.

From drought to disease, to frost and flood, to the loss of a mare who was like a member of the family, The Hartford has helped farmers recover from losses - and stay in business - for more than 80 years.

Focused on Your Business
We believe that the best people to handle your insurance needs are people who know agriculture. That's why we have staffed our Agricultural Insurance Center with knowledgeable underwriters capable of handling all aspects of an insurance policy.

Crop Insurance
Since the 1930's, The Hartford has protected the farmer's livelihood - his crops - from a variety of threats. The Hartford has helped farmers stay in business -- with or without a harvest.

If it Grows, It's Important to Us.

That's why The Hartford covers a variety of crops against the threat of natural perils. In selected states, The Hartford writes Crop-Hail, Multi-Peril Crop Insurance, and some Named Peril coverage.

Livestock Insurance
Since 1916, The Hartford has been there for the livestock community -- whether it's a fire in Kansas City, a truck wreck in Texas, or a blizzard in Nebraska. Throughout these events and more, The Hartford has met its obligations promptly and helped each operation get back on its feet.

If It's Livestock, The Hartford Can Insure It.

The Hartford has an array of coverages that can be tailored to the special risks you face.
