Farm Insurance in Indiana — An Independent Agent Who Knows What Your Operation Actually Needs
We represent multiple carriers for farm and agribusiness coverage in Jasper County and Northwest Indiana — so you're not limited to one company's quote.
Farm Bureau Isn't Your Only Option.
We Can Prove It.
Indiana Farm Bureau is the name most farmers know. It's also a captive insurer — which means it can only offer its own products at its own prices. If its coverage doesn't fit your operation, or its pricing isn't competitive for your risk profile, you don't have leverage. You just have what they offer.
Ci Insurance is an independent farm insurance agency in Jasper County. We hold contracts with multiple carriers that write farm and agribusiness coverage in Indiana. That means we can compare coverage terms and pricing across the market and bring you the options Farm Bureau can't. One carrier gives you one quote. We give you the market.
We've been serving farm families in Northwest Indiana since 1953 — through bad crop years, equipment losses, and everything in between. We understand what's at stake because we've seen what happens when a farm operation isn't covered the way it should be.
Farm Coverage That Goes Where Your Homeowners Policy Stops
A standard homeowners policy wasn't written for a farm. It excludes agricultural equipment, working livestock, commercial-use structures, and farm liability — the very things that make a farm operation what it is. If you're running a Jasper County corn or soybean operation, storing grain on-site, keeping livestock, or maintaining outbuildings and machinery, a personal policy leaves most of your operation unprotected.
Farm insurance covers what a homeowners policy excludes. We work with carriers experienced in agricultural risk across Indiana — from large-scale row crop operations to smaller hobby farms and mixed-use properties — to build coverage that fits what you actually run.
Farm & Agribusiness Coverage We Offer
Farm Property & Liability Insurance
Coverage for farm dwellings, outbuildings, barns, grain storage, equipment, machinery, and livestock — along with the liability protection a farm operation requires. We compare carriers on both coverage terms and pricing to find what fits your specific operation.
Crop Insurance
A single bad growing season can threaten an operation that took decades to build. Crop insurance protects your revenue against weather events, disease, pest damage, and price volatility. We work with carriers and programs covering the corn, soybean, and grain operations common to Jasper County and the surrounding region.
What We Cover — and What Most Farm Policies Miss
Farm operations in Northwest Indiana carry risks that general commercial or personal policies weren't designed to address. A proper farm policy accounts for all of it.
- Farm dwellings and attached structures
- Barns, outbuildings, grain bins, and storage facilities
- Farm machinery and equipment — including scheduled and unscheduled items
- Working livestock
- Farm liability — including on-premises visitor liability and agritourism exposure where applicable
- Crop revenue protection across covered perils
- Farm auto and commercial vehicle coverage
If your current policy doesn't address each of these categories for your operation, it's worth a review. We'll tell you what you have and what you're missing.
What Farm Families Ask Us
What insurance does a farm in Indiana need?
A farm in Indiana typically needs coverage across several categories: farm property and structures (dwelling, barns, outbuildings, grain storage), farm equipment and machinery, livestock, farm liability, and — for operations dependent on crop revenue — crop insurance. A standard homeowners or commercial policy excludes most of these. The right combination depends on the size and type of your operation. An independent farm insurance agent can review your existing coverage and identify what's missing.
Is Indiana Farm Bureau the only option for farm insurance in Indiana?
No. Indiana Farm Bureau is a captive insurer — it only sells its own products. Independent agencies like Ci Insurance hold contracts with multiple carriers that write farm and agribusiness coverage in Indiana. That means you can compare coverage terms and pricing across carriers, not just accept a single company's quote. If you've only ever been quoted by Farm Bureau, you haven't seen the full market.
