Horse or cattle farmers have a large portion of their capital invested in their animals. However, unfortunate events do not need to result in financial losses if you insure yourself against accidents and illness to protect your operating income.

• KBC Animal Insurance is exclusively intended for horse and cattle farmers, i.e. not for horse and cattle traders
• Cattle herd cover is intended for dairy farms

Individual horses or individual cattle

The insurance covers death or emergency slaughter, loss, permanent loss of value, and veterinary treatment, on condition that the cause is one of the following:

• Accident
• Illness
• Chronic lameness (only in the case of horses)

Optional cover: theft

Herds of cattle

Cover is provided for death or emergency slaughter due to an accident or illness.

Optional cover: theft

• Exacerbation of the situation due to illnesses or disabilities affecting the animals concerned prior to the claim event
• Illnesses whose control is regulated by the government

A 60-day waiting period applies for illness and chronic lameness cover. That means that the policy does not apply if the illness or chronic lameness occurs within 60 days of the commencement of the policy.  

• This is a form of property damage insurance
• A 60-day waiting period applies for illness and chronic lameness cover.
