In Western Australia we all know how harsh our weather conditions can be and how tough it can be to run a farm or business in rural WA. Living and working WA’s South West can bring with it exposures relating to weather such as heavy rainfall, gusty winds, flooding, and cyclones as well as the usual risks of theft, breakdowns, interruptions, damage, and loss.
Elements at risk for you might include livestock, crop, tools, vehicles, equipment, machinery, homes, and multiple streams of income. Therefore it’s important to find the right type of rural insurance policy to suit your specific needs in your area of the South West, including Albany.
If you own a farm or business in Albany or any other region of the South West, you’ll need to source protection for a number of items including:
• Your farm home and contents
• Your business general property
• Crop, hay or livestock damage or loss
• Buildings such as barns and sheds and their contents
• Farm machinery or equipment theft and breakdown
• Farm vehicle theft
• Any interruption to your business
• Fencing damage
Considering the time and investment it has taken you to build your home and your business in the South West, it’s important to make sure this is protected against the worst that the WA weather, climate, and general life events can throw at you. So whether you have invested in broad acre farming, you’re a pastoralist, dairy farmer, chicken farmer, viticulturist, winery owner, or horticulturalist ensure you’re covered to protect your livelihood.
