Committed to your unique and changing needs

The industry’s fortunes have always been shaped by unpredictable weather, climatic conditions and the challenges faced by disease. Whilst the agricultural industry continues to grow year on year, it is impossible to deny the significant impact that climate change has had on agricultural output. Increasingly our farms, livestock, and plantations are exposed to catastrophic losses from soaring temperatures, windstorms, flooding, bushfires and other extreme weather events.

Global trade and tourism are also creating new challenges and putting our border biosecurity defenses to the test. Keeping the most devastating exotic diseases out of our livestock herds and crop sectors is a daunting task.

We are keenly aware of the challenges facing our agricultural industry and are uniquely placed to offer advice and risk management solutions.

We listen to your concerns

Our deep understanding of the agricultural landscape and climatic conditions allows us to talk with farmers and agribusinesses about real risks. We believe that in order to show a client true value, you must first listen and understand their concerns, and experience tells us that every farm, plantation, and business is different and faces its own unique set of risks and challenges. It is for this reason that our approach is holistic - we follow a process of listening to your concerns, suggesting risk mitigation measures and customising coverage solutions that are specific to your agricultural operation.
