Why Rural Agent Insurance Requires Specialist Understanding

Insurance for livestock agents and rural service businesses requires genuine understanding of how these operations work — the volume of livestock handled, the financial values at risk during transit and at saleyards, the professional liability exposure of agents who provide valuations and recommendations to farming clients, and the specific risks of operating in regional and remote agricultural environments.

Wideland Insurance Brokers has this understanding because our principals have operated in agricultural communities since the early 1990s. We arrange insurance for livestock agents, stock and station agents, rural merchandise businesses and agribusiness service providers across Queensland and rural Australia. Contact us on 07 4602 9002 to discuss your specific requirements.

• Livestock transit — cover for stock in transit under agent control
• Saleyard liability — public liability for saleyard operations and livestock handling
• Professional indemnity — advice, valuation and agency errors
• Business pack — office, vehicles, equipment and business interruption
