YOUR LAST CHANCE TO WIN A JD TRACTOR
This is it! The last week of

to win a John Deere 6010
tractor. Heres your chance
to fill in the coupon
THIS is the fifth and final competition page of our spring competition to win a £30,000 Deere 6010 tractor. We have teamed up with Harrogate-based company AIUA, which is the biggest specialist agricultural insurance underwriter in the UK.
The format is simple. Just read the text that has appeared in the competition pages in the issues of Mar 17 (p83), Mar 24 (p91), Mar 31 (p70) and Apr 7 (p82), as well as in this issue.
Answer the single simple question that appears on each page, then fill in the coupon that appears on this page. Finally, complete the tie-breaker and send the filled-in coupon to us at the address given. Remember you only have until Apr 28 to get the coupon to us.
In previous weeks weve focussed on some of AIUAs farm insurance products. Now its time to continue last weeks suggestions from the company on ways of cutting insurance costs.
With agriculture in a severe slump and incomes depressed, this is the time to ask yourself why you buy insurance. If you conclude that its to protect you against a large loss that could damage or sink the business, then do you really need all the ancillary covers?
Crops and livestock
• Do examine your sums insured carefully. Falling produce and livestock prices often mean that values can be reduced.
• Dont reduce the sums insured so much that, in the event of a claim, an average has to be applied.
• Do consider revenue cover and escape average being applied, subject to a declaration.
• Do use revenue cover for other reasons. It can mean that certain farm contents can be deleted and there is free increased-cost-of-working cover. There is also free machinery hire cover (following damage by an insured peril) and a three-year indemnity period.
• Do give thought to increasing the excess.
Machinery
• Do delete all trailed machinery, which is cheaper to insure, either attached or detached, under a motor policy on an all-risks basis.
• Do bear in mind the high cost of insuring tools against theft. It may be possible to remove these tools at night – or place them in a strongroom – and thereby delete this cover.
Now fill in that coupon and get it in the post to us!
