At Portage Mutual, we understand the diverse nature of farming operations and the many challenges you must meet every day. To help tackle these challenges, we've developed a farm insurance package that can be tailored to meet the needs of today's farm business. This ensures that each farmer can have a policy that best suits the needs of their individual farming operation.

With Portage Mutual you have many choices for structuring your insurance coverage. Your Portage Mutual Insurance Broker can discuss these choices in detail, and customize a package for you.

Home and Personal Property.

Both rural and urban dwellers can obtain the same protection packages and the same flexible options through Portage Mutual's Agricultural Pro policy. You can choose from two types of coverage: Broad Form or Comprehensive. Packages are alsoavailable for tenants, mobile homeowners, and seasonal residences.

Single-Limit Option for Homeowners.
Homeowners have the choice of Traditional Coverage Limits on personal effects, or our extremely flexible Single-Limit Homeowners policy which includes higher coverage limits for special items such as furs, jewelry, etc. The single-limit coverage option gives you one blanket amount for all basic coverages.
