Job Description

Running a farm or ranch has always involved a lot of risks. But these days, rapid changes in the industry are raising the stakes. Advanced technologies and new environmental concerns are pushing farming and ranching in new directions. But no matter how much things change, one thing never will: Great American's AgriBusiness® Division's commitment to keeping farmers and ranchers strong with effective insurance coverage.

The farm products can cover businesses that range from fruit and vegetable farms to livestock operations and the equine farm products cover a wide range of risks ranging from monoline property and liability, care custody or control to umbrella and auto.
