For Hog and Pig Farming, the saved research highlights livestock mortality, environmental liability, farm property. Confirm how these arise in the actual operation, what controls are used and whether additional services change the proposed coverage.
Questions to ask
- Is the operation farrow-to-finish, feeder pig production, or finishing only — and what is the approximate total herd inventory value?
- How many confinement buildings are on the operation, and what are the ventilation and backup power systems?
- Is the operation a CAFO under state or federal designation, and are there any active regulatory orders or compliance issues?
- What is the manure management system — lagoon, pit, or other — and what is its proximity to waterways, wells, or neighboring residences?
- Are there any contract growing arrangements with an integrator, and does the integrator provide any coverage?
- For Hog and Pig Farming, what should the underwriter know about cafo designation with active regulatory notices or consent orders?
- For Hog and Pig Farming, what should the underwriter know about manure lagoon located in a floodplain or in close proximity to surface water or municipal wells?
- For Hog and Pig Farming, what should the underwriter know about prior significant livestock mortality losses, particularly disease-related events affecting large portions of the herd?

Hog and pig farming establishments raise swine through various production stages — breeding, gestation, farrowing, nursery, and finishing — either as integrated farrow-to-finish operations or in specialized phases. Animals are typically housed in confinement buildings with controlled ventilation and managed waste systems, though some operations use pasture or hoop-barn approaches. Output is primarily market hogs sold to packers, though some operations sell feeder pigs or breeding stock.
