Description

In this episode of the AGvisorPOD, host Rob Saik continues the conversation with Dave Nussbaumer, Managing Partner at Lakeview Insurance, digging into one of the most overlooked but critical topics in agriculture: liability risk on the farm.

From train crossings to custom spraying, ATVs to half-ton trucks, Dave shares real-world examples of how quickly an accident can escalate into a financial nightmare if coverage isn’t properly in place. With farms growing in value and operations becoming more complex, today’s liability exposures are bigger than ever.

You’ll hear practical advice on:
 • How to assess your farm’s liability risk
 • Why proper coverage limits matter (hint: $200,000 won’t cut it)
 • The hidden risks of custom work and “helping the neighbor”
 • Smart steps to protect your people, equipment, and future

Whether you’re running a multi-million-dollar operation or a family farm, this episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants peace of mind knowing their farm is protected.
