Select Partners


Farming and agriculture are complex. The needs, business strategy and risks can be vastly different from one farm to the next. Finding the right partners to help protect your family, business and future takes time. Working with an insurance agent and financial advisor who understands agriculture, who is familiar with the challenges you face every day, and who can offer options based on your specific needs will save you time and help to ensure your business is successful.

The California Farm Bureau Select Partners program offers you the comfort of knowing the agency and financial advisor you choose will be your valued partner.
