Insurance is about protecting your investments – your agri-business. Crop insurance is an important risk management tool, which offers an important layer of protection against loss of revenue. Should there be a decline in agricultural commodities or a decline in crop yields due to natural causes, such as hail, wind, drought, disease, or insects. Essentially, the insurance covers loss of yield which exceeds a deductible amount.

Palmer Insurance was started by Dick Palmer in the 70's with a mission to help local farms insure their futures. In the early 80's David Berg started out as an adjuster for Palmer Insurance and in the mid 80’s he took over the business. Palmer insurance has provided crop hail protection. 

David and my father Brad Nelson were great friends and business partners, as they co owned an elk farm together. Growing up I worked on my father's grain farm. Working side by side with David and my dad on the Elk farm, and knowing David as a trusted family friend, it was natural to step into Palmer Insurance and continue with the values that David and my father instilled in me.
