AFSC's claims adjusters play a vital role in Alberta’s agriculture industry.
These dedicated professionals can be found in fields and on farms throughout the province, inspecting hail damage, conducting acceptance inspections and post-harvest reviews, and performing other essential assessments.
Often, they are the first point of contact a producer has with Agriculture Financial Services (AFSC) when crops fail to thrive or suffer hail damage.
George Kueber, Claims Adjusting manager at AFSC, believes claim adjusters provide significant value by supporting clients, answering their questions, and guiding them through the claims process. One call, in particular, reinforced this belief.
“I’m going to share a story – 2021 was an extremely dry season and it was devastating in many areas (of the province),” said Kueber, who has been with AFSC for 24 years, adding that areas which aren’t typically dry were also experiencing a significant lack of moisture.
“I had a client call me to have a chat, and (they) mentioned that the most important person on their farm that year was the crop adjuster.
“Not the banker, not the machinery salesman – it was the crop adjuster and that really hit home for me.”
