Coverage for Disease Outbreaks
Diseases such as avian influenza, Newcastle disease, and other infectious illnesses can devastate poultry farms. Insurance can help cover losses due to disease outbreaks, reducing the financial impact of a sudden and unexpected loss of birds.
Natural Disasters Protection
Severe weather events like tornadoes, floods, hurricanes, and wildfires can destroy poultry barns and lead to massive losses. Poultry insurance provides compensation if your flock is lost due to natural disasters, helping you recover quickly.
Accidents and Injuries
Even with the best care, accidents can happen. Fires, equipment malfunctions, and other on-farm incidents can cause injury or death to poultry. Insurance ensures you’re covered for unexpected accidents that harm your birds.
Theft and Predation
Poultry theft is an increasing concern for farmers, and predators like foxes, raccoons, and coyotes can also cause losses. Insurance can help compensate for stolen or lost poultry, protecting your financial investment.
Transportation Coverage
Transporting poultry comes with its own set of risks. Birds can suffer from heat stress, dehydration, or injuries while in transit. National Livestock Insurance Agency provides coverage for losses that occur during transportation, ensuring that your investment is protected even while on the move. Contact your National Livestock Insurance agent for details.
Common Exclusions
While poultry insurance provides broad coverage, there are some exclusions to be aware of:
- Pre-existing Conditions: If birds were sick or injured before coverage started, losses related to those conditions may not be covered.
- Negligence or Poor Management: Losses due to improper care, lack of food or water, or failure to provide adequate shelter may not be covered.
