From cattle ranches in the Hill Country to family-owned farms in East Texas and large-scale crop operations across the Panhandle, agriculture in Texas isn’t just a business — it’s a way of life. But in today’s environment of unpredictable weather, rising equipment costs, labor shortages, and increasing liability exposure, that way of life faces more risks than ever before.
And when disaster strikes or disputes arise?
You don’t need some off-the-shelf ag policy designed for “any farm, anywhere.”
You need Texas-specific protection — tailored to the unique hazards, regulations, and contractual demands of modern agriculture.
At WorkersInsurance.com, we insure working farms, family ranches, agribusinesses, and multi-generation homesteads with coverage that’s as durable as the people who live it.
🧠 Serving row crop farmers, cattle ranchers, poultry and hog producers, hay growers, farmstead owners, agribusiness operations, and livestock haulers across the state of Texas.
Agriculture is one of the most capital-intensive and risk-prone industries in Texas. Between volatile commodity prices, rising land values, equipment theft, and livestock exposure, every day in the field brings potential financial catastrophe.
Yet too many producers rely on outdated, underwritten, or incomplete policies that haven’t been reviewed in years — or worse, don’t actually cover the scope of their operation.
At WorkersInsurance.com, we custom-build protection for:
✅ Independent Cattle Ranches and Grazing Co-ops
✅ Family Farms (both subsistence and commercial)
✅ Multi-acre Row Crop Growers (cotton, corn, wheat, sorghum)
✅ Livestock Haulers and Agricultural Transporters
✅ Hobby Farms and Farm-to-Market Operations
✅ Agricultural Equipment-Heavy Enterprises
✅ Mixed-Use Ranches with Airbnb, Events, or Hunting Income
💡 We don’t just check the “farm and ranch” box — we analyze your acreage, output, livestock, equipment, and income streams to design protection that fits.
🌾 General Liability Insurance for Farms & Ranches
Covers third-party injuries, property damage, and legal claims related to your agricultural operations. Whether a visitor is injured by livestock, a contractor is hurt while repairing a fence, or your equipment accidentally damages a neighbor’s property, General Liability covers medical bills, settlements, and legal defense.
Texas Focus: Many livestock auctions, produce distributors, and land leases in Texas require proof of liability coverage — often $1M or more — before doing business with you. For operations hosting public events like rodeos, pumpkin patches, or U-pick farms, this coverage is a must-have to prevent devastating lawsuits.
🦺 Workers’ Compensation Insurance
Protects farmhands, ranch hands, and seasonal workers if they’re injured on the job. It covers medical expenses, lost wages, and rehabilitation costs.
Texas Law: Texas is the only state where private employers are not required to carry Workers’ Comp — but agricultural operations face high injury risks, from machinery accidents to livestock-related injuries. Many large buyers, co-ops, and agribusiness partners require proof of Workers’ Comp before signing contracts. Opting in also shields you from direct employee lawsuits through exclusive remedy protections.
🚜 Farm & Ranch Vehicle Insurance (Commercial Auto)
Personal auto policies won’t cover trucks, trailers, ATVs, or tractors used for commercial agriculture. Farm & Ranch Vehicle Insurance covers liability, collisions, theft, and damage while transporting workers, animals, feed, or equipment.
Texas Reality: From hauling cattle between pastures to long-distance produce deliveries, rural highways and city routes create unique risks. One uninsured accident can lead to six-figure losses, especially with today’s repair and medical costs.
🧰 Equipment & Machinery Insurance
Protects tractors, combines, irrigation systems, balers, and other critical farm machinery from theft, damage, or breakdown.
Why It Matters in Texas: Machinery is the heartbeat of your operation. A single broken tractor during planting season could delay work and crush productivity. This coverage ensures fast repairs or replacements, keeping your business on schedule.
🏗️ Inland Marine Insurance
Covers mobile equipment, feed, seeds, or other materials while in transit or temporarily stored away from your main property.
Example: You’re shipping livestock feed to a remote grazing lease and it’s stolen en route. Inland Marine coverage reimburses the loss, preventing cash-flow disruptions during critical seasons.
🐄 Livestock Coverage
Protects against loss due to theft, disease, accidental injury, severe weather, or transportation accidents.
Texas Note: Livestock is among your most valuable assets. Coverage can be customized for individual high-value animals like breeding bulls or for entire herds — essential for cattle, horses, goats, and more.
🛡️ Farm Umbrella Liability Insurance
Provides an extra layer of liability protection when claims exceed your standard policy limits.
Why It Matters: If a ranch visitor is seriously injured and sues for millions, umbrella coverage kicks in to safeguard both your farm assets and personal wealth.
🔑 Crop Insurance
Protects your income against natural disasters like drought, hail, or flooding, as well as revenue losses caused by market fluctuations.
Texas Agriculture Needs: With unpredictable Texas weather, crop insurance is essential for farmers growing cotton, sorghum, corn, wheat, and more. Policies are often required for bank loans or USDA-backed financing.
💻 Cyber Liability Insurance (Optional but Growing Need)
Covers losses from cyberattacks, such as compromised financial data, stolen customer payment information, or ransomware.
Texas Trend: As more ranches and farms adopt digital tools for inventory management, payment systems, and smart irrigation tech, cyber threats are no longer just an urban problem.


A comprehensive ag policy should mitigate risk across land, livestock, liability, and livelihood — including these core coverages:
✅ Farm & Ranch Property Insurance
Covers barns, silos, grain bins, fences, irrigation systems, and outbuildings from fire, wind, theft, and natural disasters.
✅ Dwelling Coverage (Owner-Occupied or Tenant-Occupied)
Protects the farmhouse or residences on the property — including older, multi-family, or modular homes.
✅ Equipment Breakdown & Mobile Machinery (Inland Marine)
Covers tractors, combines, ATVs, hay balers, irrigation rigs, and other tools — even when off-property or in transport.
✅ Livestock Coverage (Basic, Broad, or Specialized)
Reimburses for accidental death from weather events, fire, transit, drowning, electrocution, or theft. Optional high-value animal endorsements.
✅ General Liability
Protects against third-party bodily injury or property damage — crucial if you allow visitors, sell goods, or host events.
✅ Farm Auto & Ag Hauler Coverage
Includes work trucks, trailers, grain haulers, and livestock transport rigs. Personal auto insurance won’t cover commercial farm use.
✅ Workers’ Compensation or Occupational Accident + Employer Liability
Even if not legally required, crew injuries or contract labor disputes can financially ruin an unprotected operation.
✅ Umbrella/Excess Liability
For large acreage, valuable herds, public access, or agritourism — essential to protect against catastrophic lawsuits.
Your land feeds families — but without comprehensive protection, one fire, one outbreak, or one claim can wipe out your year.
🔒 Pro Tip: Smart Coverage for Elite Business Owners — Bundle & Save Without Cutting Protection
Texas ag operations evolve: more land, more livestock, more equipment, more workers. If your policy doesn’t scale with your growth, you’re dangerously exposed.

If you’re scaling acreage, adding crews, or diversifying your operation — you need a coverage audit before disaster strikes.
💡 Solution: We customize every policy stack based on your operation scope, structure, and risk — no bloated premiums, no missing coverages.
📍 Cattle Loss – Panhandle Freeze:
Winter storm Uri killed 22 head of cattle overnight. Livestock endorsement paid full market value.
📍 Tractor Fire – Brazos Valley:
$145K John Deere tractor caught fire due to electrical short. Equipment breakdown coverage activated — replaced within days.
📍 Hunting Guest Injury – West Texas:
Paying guest tripped in uneven terrain, broke collarbone. Farm liability policy covered medical and settled lawsuit.
📍 Poultry Facility Wind Damage – Central TX:
Straight-line winds collapsed roofing on two large poultry houses. Property policy replaced entire structure under full replacement cost.
📍 Pesticide Drift Lawsuit – South Texas:
Neighbor’s field suffered crop damage. Pollution liability covered legal defense and $30K settlement.
💬 Even a single accident, misunderstanding with an employee or client dispute can expose you to six-figure liability without the right policy.

🔒 With WorkersInsurance.com — you’re shielded. Let's Talk!

Accidents on Texas farms happen fast — a slip in the cattle chute, a fall from the hay loft, a tractor rollover. And while many operations rely on family and seasonal help, injury doesn’t care about bloodlines or job titles. In rural counties like Wise, Uvalde, or Gonzales, a single medical emergency can spiral into six-figure lawsuits.
💣 Here’s the Risk:
Texas doesn’t require workers’ compensation, but that doesn’t mean you’re off the hook. Whether it’s a hired hand or a friend helping during harvest, if someone gets hurt and you didn’t carry coverage, you can be sued for medical bills, lost wages, and negligence. Some policies won’t even respond if the injured person isn’t “officially” on payroll.
🛡️ Solution:
We offer tailored protection:
From Panhandle hail to South Texas drought to Hill Country lightning strikes — Texas farmers are exposed to extreme weather and natural catastrophe like no other state. A single freak storm can obliterate harvest yields, kill livestock, or destroy outbuildings you depend on daily.
💣 Here’s the Risk:
Basic farm policies often exclude certain natural disasters, cap recovery amounts below real loss, or require strict notice periods to trigger claims. Worse, some policies cover your dwelling — but not your barn, silo, or fence line.
🛡️ Solution:
We build multi-peril crop insurance (MPCI) and comprehensive farm packages that include:
Cattle rustling may sound like an old Western problem, but theft of livestock is still rampant in rural Texas. Add in risk of disease outbreaks, predator attacks, and accidental poisoning, and the cost of a herd loss can be catastrophic.
💣 Here’s the Risk:
Many ranch policies don’t automatically include animal mortality or may limit payouts based on outdated valuations. If you raise prize bulls or rare breeds, generic coverage can leave you with pennies on the dollar.
🛡️ Solution:
We offer Livestock Risk Protection (LRP) and animal mortality policies that:
Spraying herbicides, irrigating from creeks, or spreading manure can unintentionally impact neighboring properties or public land. A small mistake — even from wind drift — can trigger EPA scrutiny or a neighbor’s lawsuit.
💣 Here’s the Risk:
General farm liability often excludes environmental hazards. If you don’t carry the right endorsements, you could be liable for cleanup costs, crop damage, and civil penalties — even if the drift was unintentional.
🛡️ Solution:
We include Farm Pollution Liability and Environmental Drift Coverage where needed, with:
Your equipment is your lifeline. If your combine goes down in the middle of harvest, or your tractor is stolen from the barn, your entire season’s yield — and revenue — could be jeopardized.
💣 Here’s the Risk:
Most homeowners or basic policies do not cover farm-use machinery — especially when driven on roads, operated by others, or financed through ag lenders.
🛡️ Solution:
We offer Scheduled Equipment Coverage and Mobile Machinery Policies for:
Agri-tourism is growing across Texas — whether it’s a pumpkin patch in October, a field day for FFA, or leasing land for dove hunting. But any time the public steps foot on your land, your liability skyrockets.
💣 Here’s the Risk:
Standard farm liability may not cover commercial guest access, and a single injury — even a twisted ankle or ATV mishap — can open you to litigation or invalidate your base policy.
🛡️ Solution:
We provide Agri-Tourism Endorsements and Event Liability Coverage that include:

Farm and ranch insurance is a hybrid policy that combines elements of homeowners, commercial business, and agricultural coverage. It protects your home, farm structures, equipment, crops, livestock, and liability all under one policy.
Texas farms and ranches face unique risks such as:
Without proper coverage, a single loss could jeopardize your livelihood and family legacy.
Most policies include several core protections:
Each policy is customized to match the size and scope of your operation, whether it’s a family farm or a large commercial ranch.
No. One of the major benefits of farm and ranch insurance is combined coverage.
This means your home, personal property, farm structures, and operational assets are all protected under a single policy.
However, you must accurately value each structure and piece of equipment to avoid being underinsured during a claim.
Farm liability protects you when someone is injured or property is damaged because of your farming activities.
Examples include:
It covers medical bills, legal defense costs, and settlements, shielding your farm’s finances and reputation.
Yes, but standard coverage may be limited.
Basic policies typically cover livestock losses from:
To protect against broader risks such as disease, extreme weather, or accidents in transit, you can add livestock endorsements or standalone policies.
Example: A Texas cattle rancher loses 15 head during a freak ice storm. With enhanced livestock coverage, the rancher recovers the financial value quickly.
No. Crop insurance is separate and provided through USDA-approved programs.
It protects against:
For Texas farmers dealing with volatile weather and commodity markets, crop insurance is critical for long-term financial stability.
Not automatically.
Activities like:
These often require additional commercial liability endorsements. Without them, injuries or product liability claims may not be covered.
No, not under a standard farm policy.
Texas is one of the few states where Workers’ Compensation is optional, but it’s highly recommended.
Seasonal workers, volunteers, and family members may also require special coverage based on state laws.
Yes, but with limitations.
Most policies cover:
However, flood and earthquake damage are excluded and require separate policies.
For crop losses caused by drought or excessive rain, you’ll need dedicated crop insurance through federal programs.
Farm umbrella insurance provides extra liability protection above your base policy limits.
Example:
A ranch hand is seriously injured while operating equipment, and medical/legal costs total $2.5M.
This prevents the loss of your ranch assets and personal wealth.
Beyond core coverage, consider:
Cyber Liability: Secures digital records like herd management software or farm store sales data.
Smart strategies to save money include:
