Strawberry Farming
NAICS 111333 · United States · 2022 edition
This U.S. industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in growing strawberries.
Review the farm operation beyond the crop.
Strawberry Farming combines production risks with equipment, premises and labor concerns. Review crop loss, agricultural labor injury, farm premises liability. Ask about custom work for others, storage and added processing; those activities need their own coverage discussion.
Questions to ask
- What is the total planted acreage in strawberries, and is the land owned or leased?
- Are any direct-to-consumer operations present, such as u-pick fields, farm stands, or farmers' market sales?
- How is the harvest labor workforce structured — direct employees, labor contractors, or a combination?
- Is on-site cold storage or packing of harvested fruit performed, and what is the approximate value of equipment involved?
- Is federal multi-peril crop insurance already in place, and if so, at what coverage level?
- For Strawberry Farming, what should the underwriter know about significant direct-to-consumer operations such as u-pick fields or large farm stands, which increase premises liability exposure and visitor volume?
- For Strawberry Farming, what should the underwriter know about use of labor contractors or farm labor organizations without verified workers' compensation coverage?
- For Strawberry Farming, what should the underwriter know about prior crop losses or a pattern of weather-related claims in a frost-prone or drought-prone growing region?

Strawberry farming establishments grow strawberries on cultivated acreage for commercial sale, typically to packing houses, food processors, wholesale distributors, or direct retail channels such as farm stands and u-pick operations. Operations generally involve soil preparation, planting, irrigation management, pest and disease control, and labor-intensive hand harvesting. Cold storage and packing of harvested fruit may also occur on-site.
