Description
The key distinguisher for hobby farming is that it is a not-for-profit motive, even though a profit may be realized. Hobby
farming is pursued primarily for pleasure or recreation. Loss exposures, including farm equipment, farm buildings, animals or
livestock, farmworkers, and operation of a road-side stand or participation in farmer’s markets clearly create the need for
farm owner policies vs. relying on homeowner’s insurance. Farm owner’s Property and Liability coverages will be discussed
and applied to the real-life case or claims examples. Automobile coverage will also be reviewed to address the related farm
vehicle and off premises exposures.
