General Information

The Agricultural Risk Inspection School is a popular and intensive two and a half-day program for loss control specialists, underwriters, managers and supervisors. Fundamental topics that are covered include the inspection process, farm machinery and equipment safety, electrical systems, confinement concerns, understanding LP gas and more. Both fundamental and advanced topics are offered to meet all educational needs. One of the highlights of the school is the farm inspection and tour where attendees go through a hands-on inspection of an area farm.

Farm Inspection & Tour

The Farm Inspection & Tour is always a popular feature of the school and this year is sure to bring enhanced learning opportunities for attendees. This year attendees will visit Knebel Circle K Dairy Farm in Pocahontas, Ill.

"I found the actual farm inspection to be extremely beneficial. I was also impressed with the overall content and organization of the school. Definitely plan to attend again if the opportunity presents itself!"
