What Are Farm And Ranch
Insurance Endorsements?

The Farm Property Endorsements are as follows:

FP 01 60-Exclusion of Loss Due to Virus or Bacteria

This mandatory form must be attached to any policy containing FP 10 60-Causes of Loss Form - Farm Property, FP 00 30-Mobile Agricultural Machinery and Equipment Coverage Form or FP 00 40-Livestock Coverage Form. The only exception is when FP 05 30 or FP 05 31 is attached instead. Essentially this form is an absolute exclusion.

FP 03 04-Single Farm Property Per Occurrence Deductible

This endorsement amends the deductible section in FP 00 30, FP 00 40 or FP 00 90. It states that if damage occurs involving two or more coverage parts, only the highest deductible for any coverage part applies to the occurrence. This prevents application of multiple deductibles for a single occurrence.

FP 03 05-Windstorm or Hail Percentage Deductible (04 16 changes - mainly editorial)

This endorsement provides a percentage deductible that applies only to wind and hail losses. It is important to note that the deductible is a percentage of the applicable coverage limit, not of the amount of the loss. For example, if the insurance limit is $500,000, and the deductible is 5%, the deductible amount paid by the insured is $25,000. This endorsement is used mainly in areas subject to high wind and hail conditions and significant wind and hail losses.

FP 04 02-Sump Overflow and Water Backup from Sewers or Drains (Coverages A, B, C and D only)

This endorsement provides coverage for losses due to water backup from sewers or drains and overflows from sump pump systems. The limit is $5,000. This form expands coverage for only the personal side of the farm since it is only available for use with FP 00 12-Farm Property-Farm Dwelling, Appurtenant Structures And Household Personal Property Coverage Form.

FP 04 04-Dwelling and Farm Building Replacement Cost Protection (Including Ordinance or Law Coverage)

This endorsement accomplishes several objectives. It eliminates the 80% insurance to value requirement, provides three methods to handle loss cost increases due to application of ordinance or laws, and adds coverage for construction cost increases not related to ordinances or laws. This form is only available for buildings covered under the following:

• FP 00 12-Farm Property-Farm Dwellings, Appurtenant Structures and Household Personal Property Coverage Form
• FP 00 14-Farm Property-Barns, Outbuildings and Other Farm Structures Coverage Form.
• FP 05 26 cannot be attached when this endorsement is attached.

FP 04 07-Increased Special Limits of Specified Household Personal Property

FP 00 12- Farm Property-Farm Dwelling, Appurtenant Structures and Household Personal Property Coverage Form imposes maximum limits on many types of personal property. This endorsement provides a means to increase those sub-limits. However, the total limit of insurance remains unchanged.

FP 04 08-Farm Computer Coverage

This is the electronic data processing coverage part for the Farm policy.

FP 04 09-Increased Special Limits on Business Property

FP 00 12, Farm Property-Farm Dwelling, Appurtenant Structures And Household Personal Property Coverage Form limits coverage for business property to limits of $2,500 on premises and $1,500 off premises. This endorsement allows the insured to choose any limit for the business property on premises exposure. When that limit is selected, 60% of it is available to apply to business property off premises. This limit is not an additional amount of insurance but is a limitation on business property. If additional limits are desired, refer to FP 04 61-Scheduled Personal Property.

FP 04 16-Contributing Insurance

This endorsement permits two or more insurance companies to provide property coverage for the same farm. The total amount of insurance is listed on the declarations. Each participating company is responsible for paying its proportional share of any covered loss.

FP 04 20-Foreign Objects in Machinery

FP 10 60-Causes of Loss - Farm Property excludes any loss or damage caused by foreign objects being scraped or sucked into an item of machinery or equipment. FP 00 30-Mobile Agricultural Machinery and Equipment Coverage Form excludes the same loss or damage. This endorsement can be used to remove the exclusion in both forms.

FP 04 21-Debris Removal Increased Limit of Insurance

Debris removal coverage is limited to 25% of the amount of a covered loss plus an additional 5% of the amount of loss under certain circumstances. The 5% figure can be an amount in excess of the insurance limit. This endorsement provides a means for the insured to increase the 5% figure to a specific dollar amount at each location. This is important for insureds with significant potential debris removal costs.

FP 04 22-Pollutant Clean Up and Removal Additional Aggregate Limit of Insurance

Pollutant Clean Up and Removal Coverage has a $10,000 limit in the policy. This endorsement provides a means for the insured to increase the limit for each location to a specific dollar amount. This endorsement also has a space to enter a deductible amount. A deductible may be a requirement of any company willing to write higher limits for this coverage.

FP 04 24-Spoilage Coverage-Perishable Farm Personal Property

This endorsement applies only to FP 00 13-Farm Property -Farm Personal Property Coverage Form and covers spoilage that occurs due to breakdown, utility failure, or contamination. This is a separate coverage part with its own schedule, extensions of coverage, conditions, exclusions, and definitions.

FP 04 27-Grain Under Government Loan

Grain pledged as collateral for a loan from the Commodity Credit Corporation of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) creates unique requirements and agreements. This endorsement is designed to satisfy those requirements and agreements.

FP 04 28-Coverage G-Barns, Outbuildings and Other Farm Structures-Blanket Insurance

This endorsement provides the option and means to cover all barns, outbuildings and other farm structures on a blanket basis with a single amount of insurance. It amends the coinsurance and valuation clauses to accommodate and reflect the changes. FP 16 01-Coverage G-Barns, Outbuildings and Other Farm Structures Statement of Values can be used for the statement of values. This option applies only to FP 00 14-Farm Property-Barns, Outbuildings and Other Farm Structures Coverage Form.

FP 04 31-Inflation Guard

This endorsement increases the limits for ALL buildings on the policy annually but prorated at the time of loss. The amount or percentage increase must be selected and entered on the schedule.

Warning: This form contains a schedule to exclude buildings. The percentage increase does not apply to any structure listed and described in the schedule area of the form.

FP 04 35-Special Loss Settlement on Dwellings

This endorsement permits a different percentage than the 80% figure specified in the coverage form as the qualifying amount for replacement cost coverage and loss settlement.

FP 04 36-Replacement Cost - Household Personal Property

FP 00 12-Farm Property-Farm Dwellings, Appurtenant Structures and Household Personal Property Coverage specifies that loss or damage to household property is paid on an actual cash value basis. This endorsement deletes valuation based on actual cash value and substitutes replacement cost valuation. Payment is based on the cost to either repair or replace, 400% of the actual cash value of the item or the limit of insurance, whichever is least costly to the insurance company.

FP 04 50-Additional Insured-Farm Property

Individuals or organizations that have a financial interest in any farm property, other than mortgagees, should be listed on this endorsement. The property in which they have a financial interest should also be listed. All loss payments are made out to both the named insured and the applicable financial interest for each described property, if any.

FP 04 56-Collision Resulting in Death of Livestock

This endorsement eliminates all causes of loss for livestock covered by FP 00 13-Farm Property-Farm Personal Property Coverage Form except for collision. The word COLLISION must be entered on FP DS 11-Advisory Declarations Page B - Scheduled of Farm Personal Property - Coverage E. A limit for the livestock can be entered on either this endorsement or the declarations. This is a very restrictive endorsement and should be used with extreme caution.

FP 04 61-Scheduled Personal Property

This endorsement provides a means to change the sublimits of insurance that apply in the basic policy and to customize coverage for insureds with higher values for certain classes of property.

FP 04 75-Unoccupancy and Vacancy Permit

Policy coverage forms contain limitations and restrictions that apply to buildings not occupied or vacant. This endorsement removes the time provisions and restrictions specified in the applicable coverage form with respect to unoccupancy and vacancy but only for the length of the permit period.

FP 04 78-Functional Building Valuation

Older buildings that are being underutilized will probably be replaced with a very different type of building if significantly damaged. This endorsement allows the insured to select a lower limit of insurance for such a building. An interesting aspect of this endorsement is that the least of the limit, the cost to repair with cheaper materials or the market value of the building is paid.

FP 04 79-Functional Farm Personal Property, Machinery and Equipment Valuation

Older equipment that is being underutilized will probably be replaced with a very different type of item if significantly damaged. This endorsement allows the insured to select a lower limit of insurance for such equipment. An interesting aspect of this endorsement is that the least of the limit, the cost to repair with cheaper materials or the market value of the equipment, is paid.

FP 04 80-Rental To Others-Theft Coverage

FP 10 60-Causes of Loss Form - Farm Property excludes coverage for theft from the part of the principal residence rented out or leased to others. This endorsement deletes the exclusion and therefore provides theft coverage for those parts of the dwelling rented to others. There are significant restrictions to this coverage though.

FP 05 03-Debris Removal Expense

This endorsement reduces coverage. The 25% additional insurance available for debris removal expense is eliminated when this endorsement is attached.

FP 05 04-Fire Extinguisher or Fire Extinguishing Systems Expense Coverage

Coverage is added for recharging fire extinguishers or extinguishing systems when the discharge is due to a covered cause of loss. The coverage also pays for damage to property when the extinguisher or system discharges accidentally. The limit is selected by location. No deductible applies.

FP 05 05-Agritainment - Property Endorsement

Coverage is added for agritainment exposures.

FP 05 20-Scheduled Farm Personal Property Away From the Insured Location

This endorsement extends coverage under FP 00 13-Farm Property-Farm Personal Property Coverage Form to provide coverage off premises and at other locations.

FP 05 21-Replacement Cost-Mobile Agricultural Machinery and Equipment

This endorsement provides replacement cost valuation on machinery and equipment covered under FP 00 30-Mobile Agricultural Machinery and Equipment Coverage Form. In order for replacement cost valuation to apply, the item must be specifically listed and described, be insured to 80% of its replacement value at the time of loss and be damaged to the extent that it must be repaired or replaced.

FP 05 22-Cab Glass Breakage

This endorsement is similar to windshield coverage for motor vehicles. Coverage is extremely broad, with few exclusions. There is no deductible.

FP 05 23-Unit-Owners Coverage

This endorsement is designed for farm families who have condominium exposures at one or more insured locations.

FP 05 24-Assisted Living Care

This endorsement recognizes the exposure and the tremendous responsibility of caring for a disabled or aging family member. Property and liability coverages are extended to a family member of the named insured living in an assisted living care facility. The form includes special categories of property coverage and additional living expense that apply if a loss occurs at the facility and immediate transfer to another facility is needed.

FP 05 25-Increased Limits for Structures Appurtenant to Dwellings

FP 00 12-Farm Property-Farm Dwellings, Appurtenant Structures and Household Personal Property Coverage Form provides 10% of the dwelling limit to apply to appurtenant structures. This endorsement provides a means for the insured to have higher limits on specific eligible structures.

FP 05 26-Expenses Consequential to Enforcement of Ordinances or Laws Affecting Building, Zoning or Land Use (Coverages A and B only)

This endorsement is similar to FP 04 04 and cannot be used if FP 04 04 is attached. It provides a means for the insured to select a percentage of Coverage A (Dwelling) that represents the additional amount needed to accommodate any increases in construction costs due to ordinances or law, including debris removal expenses. The lowest percentage allowed is 10%. Higher amounts are available. This can be used only on FP 00 12-Farm Property - Farm Dwellings, Appurtenant Structures and Household Personal Property Coverage Form.

FP 05 27-Motorized Golf Carts

Golf carts are not included or covered as part of household personal property. This endorsement provides coverage for specifically scheduled golf carts for Special Causes of Loss. Collision coverage is an option that can be added. Coverage applies both on and away from the insured location. This endorsement has additional exclusions and conditions. A deductible that applies to each cart must be indicated.

Note: The major change in the endorsement is related to limited agritainment coverage.

FP 05 30-Exclusion of Loss Due to Virus or Bacteria; Limited Coverage for Fungi, Wet Rot, Dry Rot and Bacteria-Property

This is a restrictive endorsement, not an enhancement. It excludes loss due to virus, bacteria, fungi, wet rot, dry rot, and bacteria. It then provides a very limited amount of coverage for bacteria, fungi, wet rot, dry rot, and bacteria. It cannot be used if FP 01 60 is attached.

FP 05 31-Exclusion of Loss Due to Virus or Bacteria; Limited Coverage for Fungi, Wet Rot, Dry Rot and Bacteria-Farm Dwellings, Appurtenant Structures and Household Personal Property

The coverage provided by this endorsement applies to only coverage Form FP 00 12-Farm Property-Farm Dwellings, Appurtenant Structures, and Household Personal Property Coverage Form.

FP 05 35-Limited Coverage for Theft of Building Materials and Supplies While a Building or Structure is Under Construction

The property coverage forms exclude theft coverage for building material and supplies that are waiting to become part of a construction project.

FP 05 60-Equipment Breakdown Protection Coverage

This form expands coverage under the several Farm Property Forms to provide coverage for certain instances of failure of covered equipment.

FP 10 04-Livestock-Additional Causes of Loss

This endorsement adds coverage for accidental shooting, drowning, electrocution, attack by dogs and wild animals, loading and unloading accidents, and collapse. It can be attached only to FP 00 40-Livestock Coverage Form.

FP 10 14-Theft Exclusion

It can be attached to any Farm Property Coverage Form and can apply to all classes of property, if desired.

FP 10 15-Windstorm or Hail Exclusion

This endorsement deletes the windstorm or hail cause of loss in all Farm Property Coverage Forms. The exclusion can be limited to apply only at certain property at scheduled locations.

FP 10 16-Vandalism Exclusion

The vandalism cause of loss coverage may be removed for specific property or for all property. However, if vandalism results in a covered cause of the loss, coverage applies to the resulting loss, but all other vandalism is excluded.

FP 10 21-Exclusion of Certain Computer-Related Losses

This endorsement excludes coverage for any loss or damage related to the inability of a computer system to process certain calendar dates. It developed as a reaction to these concerns when the calendar date went from the year 1999 to the year 2000 (Y2K).

FP 10 34-Exclusion of Loss Due to By-products of Production or Processing Operations (Rental Properties)

If an owned building is damaged by by-products of a tenant's production or processing, that damage is not covered when this endorsement is attached. The exclusion applies whether or not the activity is legal.

FP 10 39-Earthquake Inception Extension

When an earthquake begins prior to a policy's inception date, there is no coverage under that policy for earthquake damage that subsequently occurs after the inception date. This endorsement modifies that limitation to cover such damage provided the earthquake started within 72 hours of the policy's inception date.

FP 10 40-Causes of Loss-Earthquake Form

This endorsement provides the additional Cause of Loss of Earthquake and Volcanic Eruption. It contains separate limitations, exclusions, and definitions from those found elsewhere in the policy or coverage form. The major change is the manner in which the deductible is calculated, but actual impact is anticipated to be small. Examples are provided in how to compute the deductible properly.

FP 10 57-Coverage for Damage Sustained Only By Tires in Collisions, Upsets Or Overturns Of Mobile Agricultural Machinery And Equipment

Instances where loss only involves tires are excluded. This form allows an insured to purchase separate coverage to protect the large and expensive vehicle parts.

FP 10 60-Causes Of Loss Form - Farm Property

This form allows selection of coverage for farm structural and personal property to apply on either a basic, broad or special form basis

FP 12 02-Protective Safeguards

This endorsement applies only for the fire cause of loss and replaces IL 04 15. It is required when the insurance company provides a premium credit because of any listed protective safeguard. This endorsement lists and describes the various scheduled services or protective safeguards on the insured's premises and requires that the insured keep them in working order. Protective safeguards are identified by a symbol for automatic sprinkler systems, automatic fire alarms, security services, and service contracts with private fire departments.

Important Note: This is a warranty. If a fire loss occurs and the described systems are not in proper working order at the time, the insurance company will not pay for the loss.

FP 12 09-Limitation on Windstorm or Hail Coverage for Roof Surfacing

This endorsement restricts coverage. It contains two potential limitations. The first changes valuation on roofs from replacement cost to actual cash value. The second excludes loss or damage by wind or hail to the roof that is considered only superficial or cosmetic. The premises must be scheduled along with the limitation selection(s).

FP 12 10-Actual Cash Value-Dwellings and Appurtenant Private Structures

The standard valuation for a dwelling on FP 0012- Farm Property-Farm Dwelling, Appurtenant Structures, and Household Personal Property Coverage Form is replacement cost, subject to 80% insurance to value. This endorsement allows the settlement terms to be changed to actual cash value for scheduled locations and/or dwellings.

FP 12 11-Loss Payable Provisions

The insured lists all loss payees and their specific interests on this endorsement form. It explains how each type of creditor is treated and the interest handled at the time of loss.

FP 12 12-Burglary and Robbery Protective Safeguards

Rate and premium credits are provided if certain burglary and robbery protective safeguards are in place. This form lists and describes the protection systems that apply and details that coverage does not apply if the systems described are not kept in proper working order. Warning: This is a warranty that can void coverage.

FP 12 18-Glass or Safety Glazing Material - Building or Structure, Storm Door or Storm Window - Tenant's Policy

The farm property coverage forms include building glass that makes up part of a building. There is no glass coverage if a named insured does not have building coverage. This endorsement is used to cover building glass when a tenant is contractually obligated to insure it. The glass must be described and a limit and the causes of loss form that applies entered on the endorsement schedule. A separate deductible may be entered on the endorsement schedule.

FP 12 29-Peak Season

Farming operations do not have the same values on hand at all times during the year but maximum amounts by season are predictable. This endorsement allows the insured to increase the normal Coverage E and/or Coverage F limits to higher limits for specific time periods to reflect seasonal changes and increases in values on the premises.

FP 13 01-Value Reporting Endorsement

This endorsement allows the named insured to select a high limit of insurance but pay only for the average value actually on hand. It requires additional paperwork and record keeping because property values present are reported monthly and may create a greater chance of penalties because of improper reporting but it does prevent under and over insurance issues.

FP 13 02-Report of Values

This is used with FP 13 01-Value Reporting Endorsement. This is a suggested form to use for reporting values if the insured decides to report values. It gives instructions on what to report, the dates to use, and the time when a report should be submitted.

FP 13 03-Supplemental Report of Values Form

This form is used if there is insufficient space on the FP 13 02-Report of Values.

FP 14 01-Coverage G-Damage to Below-Ground Foundations of Buildings or Structures and Related Consequential Expenses

This endorsement provides the means to cover the foundations and costs associated with those foundations on an individual building basis. An additional limit of insurance is provided to reflect the additional value represented by the coverage.

FP 15 01-Disruption of Farming Operations

Loss of income is a serious concern for any farming operation. This endorsement adds coverage for loss of income and extra expenses caused by or resulting from covered loss or damage to farm buildings and/or mobile agricultural machinery and equipment.

FP 15 02-Income Loss and Expense Coverage for Computer-Related Date Processing and Other Electronic Problems

This endorsement provides coverage for loss of business income or extra expenses incurred caused by certain computer equipment processing problems related to the inability of a computer system to process certain calendar dates. It developed as a reaction to these concerns when the calendar date went from the year 1999 to the year 2000 (Y2K).

FP 16 01-Coverage G-Barns, Outbuildings and Other Farm Structures Statement of Values

If endorsement FP 04 28-Blanket Insurance Endorsement is attached to the farm policy, a statement of values is required for all property included in the blanket. This is the proper form to use to provide that information.

The Farm Liability Endorsements are as follows:

FL 01 16-Exclusion-Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act

This mandatory endorsement excludes all damages due to awards from the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act and successor laws.

FL 01 63-Amendatory Endorsement

This is a mandatory endorsement, unless FL 04 03 is attached to the policy. It adds an additional exception to the pollution exclusion that provides coverage for smoke or heat pollution caused by the standard burning of crop stubble. In addition, it provides a $25,000 aggregate limit for loss or damage caused by chemical drift. Chemical drift includes eligible drifts that naturally occur during normal farm operations but does not include chemical drift resulting from chemical treatments by aircraft.

FL 04 02-Limited Product Withdrawal Expense Coverage

This endorsement reimburses the named insured's product withdrawal expenses. It does not provide any liability coverage or coverage for the cost or expense to defend claims or suits. It is subject to the aggregate limit, deductible amount, participation percentage for each product withdrawal, and cut-off date on the endorsement schedule.

FL 04 03-Limited Farm Pollution Liability Coverage

This endorsement may be used in place of the mandatory FP 01 63 -Amendatory Endorsement Form described immediately above. Coverage provided is for the sudden and accidental dispersal or release of chemicals normally found in a farming operation if the dispersal or release is not in violation of any law or ordinance. The insured selects the sublimit that applies to this coverage.

FL 04 06-Additional Residence Rented to Others

This endorsement expands coverage to include dwellings rented to others and scheduled on this endorsement. The exclusion in the policy is modified to accommodate this change.

FL 04 07-Additional Insured and Residence Premises

This endorsement permits additional members of the named insured's household to be specifically named and added to include them as insureds under the farm policy liability coverage. There is no requirement that a blood relationship or dependency situation exists in order for coverage to be available. In addition, other residences can be added to the policy as insured locations.

FL 04 11-Basic Farm Premises Liability

Despite the FL designation, this is actually a Commercial General Liability endorsement. It is attached to a Commercial General Liability policy to provide coverages similar to those in the Farm Liability policy. This coverage does not include the personal aspects of the farm. The major change is modifying the professional exclusion to also exclude claims due to the insured's not properly supervising those providing such services.

FL 04 12-Personal Liability

In the same way, as FL 04 11 above, this endorsement is attached to the Commercial General Liability policy. It adds personal coverage to the CGL. Many changes occurred in the 04 16 edition but all reflect the changes made throughout the many forms changed with this update. Some changes are beneficial, many are editorial, and some are detrimental.

FL 04 22-Electronic Data Liability

This endorsement first takes away coverage by adding Access Or Disclosure Of Confidential Or Personal Information And Data-related Liability Electronic Data exclusions to the Farm Liability Coverage Form. It then adds back coverage back for loss of electronic data that occurs only because tangible property is physically damaged. However, electronic data continues to not be considered tangible property. Coverage is subject to the loss of electronic data limit on the endorsement schedule, includes a definition for electronic data, and redefines property damage.

FL 04 29-Additional Farm Premises Rented to Others

This endorsement can be used to schedule farm premises that are rented to others.

FL 04 30-Limited Farm Pollution Liability Extension Endorsement

This endorsement provides coverage for pollution incidents that occur in and around farm structures other than storage tanks.

FL 04 32-Additional Insured-Executors, Administrators, Trustees or Beneficiaries

This endorsement includes as insureds those persons administrating, benefiting from, or inheriting the estate of the insured when the insured dies. Coverage is limited to what the law permits. When the endorsement is required by contract, coverage and limits are further limited to not being broader than what that contract requires.

FL 04 37-Broad Farm Premises Liability

This endorsement combines the limited expanded pollution coverage in FL 04 30 described above and the broadened coverage in FL 04 11 into one endorsement. It is attached to the Commercial General Liability coverage. The major change is modifying the professional exclusion to also exclude claims due to the insured's not properly supervising those providing such services.

FL 04 40-Animals In Contests or Stunting Activities

This endorsement provides liability coverage arising out of or resulting from animals in stunting activities and other prearranged contests. Coverage is for both Liability and Medical Payments.

FL 04 41-Animal Rides for Profit or Charity

This endorsement provides Liability and Medical Payments Coverage when saddle animals are used for rides for charity events or other events conducted for a profit.

FL 04 42-Limited Home Day Care Coverage

This endorsement provides liability coverage for daycare operations conducted by the insured. The endorsement schedule must be completed and coverage provided is for both liability and medical payments. Coverage applies for services provided by the insured as well as for services provided by employees of the insured.

FL 04 43-Business Activities

This endorsement is used to provide liability coverage for business activities conducted by the insured on the premises and described in the form. The endorsement has a space provided to indicate whether the liquor exclusion is to apply or not. The liquor exclusion is much more restrictive than the previous one because all liquor-related injuries are excluded even if the insured did not provide the alcohol but permitted it to be on premises. The professional exclusion is also modified to exclude claims due to the insured's not properly supervising those providing such services.

FL 04 44-Coverage for Physical Injury to Crops and Animals Due to Certain Crop-Dusting Operations Performed by Licensed Independent Contractor by Aircraft (Limited Crop-Dusting Coverage)

This endorsement provides liability coverage for direct loss or damage to crops and/or livestock, caused by or resulting from crop-dusting operations. Coverage applies only when crop-dusting operations are performed by an independent contractor. The aggregate limit for this coverage is $25,000 but may be increased.

FL 04 45-Employment-Related Practices Coverage Extension

This endorsement extends the insurance provided under coverage H and Coverage I to apply to bodily injury or property damage arising out of several employment-related practices by the insured. It also removes several liability exclusions in the policy that relate to employment practices.

Note: This endorsement has not been revised since 1988 and should not be used due to conflicts with the FL 00 20. A separate employment related practices coverage form would be more prudent.

FL 04 50-Additional Insured-Farm Liability

This endorsement is used to provide liability coverage to a number of additional interests without a premium charge. Eligible parties include persons or organizations from whom the insured leases land, persons or organizations that exercise financial control over the insured and nonresident co-owners of a non-farm residence. Coverage is limited to what the law permits. When the endorsement is required by contract, coverage and limits are further limited to not being broader than what that contract requires. Coverage for a vendor is slightly more limited but in keeping with CG 2015-Additional Insured-Vendors.

FL 04 65-Farm Employers Liability and Farm Employees Medical Payments Insurance

This endorsement provides employers' liability and medical payments coverage for farm employees. Certain designated employees may be specifically listed and excluded. The exposure basis for premium determination is each $1,000 of payroll. The basic farm liability coverage part provides employers liability coverage, including medical payments coverage for residence employees. An additional premium charge is made for each residence employee in excess of two. The basic policy premium charge contemplates the liability coverage and medical payments coverage with a $1,000 limit. This endorsement is unique because it can be attached to either the Commercial General Liability coverage form or the Farm Liability Coverage form.

FL 04 69-Custom Farming Liability Coverage

Farmers performing farming operations for others are engaged in custom farming operations. The farm liability coverage form includes coverage for liability from custom farming only if receipts are less than $5,000. This endorsement provides liability coverage if receipts from custom farming operations exceed $5,000.

Example: Betty's time is pretty much used up running her own farm. However, each year, she spends a couple of days helping a neighbor harvest his alfalfa crop for a fee.

FL 04 71-Owned Snowmobile Coverage

Snowmobiles are included in the farm liability policy but only when operated on the insured premises. Off premises operations are not covered, but this endorsement eliminates that exclusion in the farm liability policy. It also modifies other sections of the policy so it covers snowmobiles as long as they are not licensed for road, used in a business, rented to others, or used in racing.

FL 04 74-All Terrain Vehicle Coverage

Coverage for all-terrain vehicles (ATV) applies only if used on owned premises or property. This endorsement broadens the coverage to apply to any listed ATVs on the schedule operating on or off the insured premises. Coverage does not apply if the ATV is used to carry others for a charge, is rented to others, or is used in any racing or competition event.

FL 04 77-Insured's Liability While Employed by Others in Nonfarm Jobs

This endorsement extends the coverage provided by the farm liability policy to apply to the insured when employed as a salesperson, collector, messenger, clerical office employee, teacher (including optional coverage for corporal punishment), or other types of job or occupation. The professional exclusion is modified to exclude claims due to the insured not properly supervising those providing such services.

FL 04 83-Watercraft

This endorsement provides a means to schedule and cover owned watercraft normally excluded by the policy. The watercraft insured cannot be rented out or used to carry people for a fee. In addition, the watercraft is not to be used in races or competitions, except under very unusual circumstances and in very limited cases.

FL 05 01-Agritainment - Liability

Coverage is added for agritainment exposures.

FL 05 20-Amendment of Advertising Injury Definition

This restriction of coverage eliminates the violation of a person's privacy rights from the definition of advertising injury.

FL 05 21-Amendment of Personal Injury Definition

This restriction of coverage eliminates the violation of a person's privacy rights from the definition of personal injury.

FL 05 32-Limited Fungi or Bacteria Coverage Liability

This excludes coverage for loss or damage caused by fungi and bacteria and then adds back a very limited scheduled aggregate amount of coverage. This limited coverage is an alternative to the total coverage exclusion in FL 10 35.

FL 05 62-Amendment of Insured Contract Definition

This endorsement limits contractual coverage to only injuries or damages caused by the named insured or those acting on the named insured's behalf. This could represent a significant reduction of coverage. Coverage of others that is assumed by the insured is limited to what the law permits.

FL 10 01-Exclusion-Employment-Related Practices

This endorsement is used to exclude all coverage for employment-related practices, including those that occur before and following employment.

FL 10 02-Exclusion-Personal and Advertising Injury Liability
