    Education Session:

    As drones become standard equipment in agriculture, insurance coverage has not always kept pace. This CE course helps independent agents understand how agricultural drones are used, where traditional farm policies may fall short, and how specialized drone insurance addresses property, liability, and regulatory exposures. Through practical examples and real-world scenarios, agents will learn how to identify drone-related risks and confidently advise farm and agribusiness clients.
