COW SHED INSURANCE
25 PER CENT. REDUCTION
IN LINE WITH OTHER BUILDINGS
Some years ago the Farmers' Union took up with the Government the question of obtaining a reduction in the premium rates charged for fire insurance on cow sheds, which appeared to be higher than was warranted. Nothing was done, although the matter was pressed from time to- time.
Just recently, however, the Auckland Executive of the Union communicated with the Auckland Fire Underwriters' Association, to which the various insurance companies belong, asking them to review the position. As a result, the Association has advised that a reduction of approximately 25 per cent has been granted in the rates on milking sheds, this to' take effect as from the first renewal of a policy on and after January 8, 1942.
This reduction has the effect of bringing the insurance rate for milking sheds into line with those of other types of farm buildings.
