Insurance for farmers available at thousands of post offices across the country
The insurance offer is available to Poczta Polska customers through a network of 4,600 branches nationwide (including those in smaller towns and rural areas). This year, interest in subsidized agricultural insurance is very high. Most contracts cover hail risk, while the most common crops covered are cereals, rapeseed, and corn.
The Postal Mutual Insurance Company began selling another season of subsidized agricultural insurance in April this year.
One of the advantages of postal insurance is its availability in thousands of locations across the country. Insurance can be purchased in smaller towns or even rural areas, without having to travel to large cities. This includes conveniently purchasing insurance at the nearest Poczta Polska branch (out of 4,600 post offices distributing the insurance offer).
At Poczta Polska branches, you can find support in selecting an optimized insurance offer, including both subsidized agro-insurance and other products available in the insurer's broad portfolio.
