Canopius offers the following insurance products tailored to the agriculture, equine, and livestock industry:

Agriculture Treaty Reinsurance

Designed to protect insurers in the agriculture sector, this reinsurance solution covers a range of risks, including weather-related events, crop failures, and livestock losses. By sharing the risk burden, we help ensure stability and resilience for agricultural businesses.

Modern agricultural operations rely on technology, making them vulnerable to cyberattacks. Our cyber insurance covers data breaches, ransomware incidents, and operational disruptions, safeguarding your business from financial and reputational harm.

Tailored to meet equine businesses’ specific needs, this product covers high-value horses, equestrian facilities, and related liabilities. Whether it’s theft, injury, or legal disputes, we help you protect what matters most.

This policy protects farmers and producers from the financial impact of livestock mortality caused by disease, accidents, or extreme weather. Our farm insurance ensures your business can recover quickly and continue operating despite unexpected setbacks.

For businesses involved in agricultural or veterinary aspects of cannabis production, we provide specialist coverage addressing Directors & Officers Liability, Employment Practices Liability and Fiduciary Liability.

Focused on food preparation and grain processing facilities, this coverage protects against property damage, fire, machinery breakdown, and business interruption, helping operations stay resilient through physical and operational risks.

Our insurance covers transportation of cannabis and related products, focusing on commercial automobile physical damage. Protection includes covering cargo of non-owned goods, owned goods, and cash.
