What brought Farmers Alliance to Kansas?
Farmers Alliance began in 1888 in McPherson, Kansas. It started as a
fire insurance company to share the mutual exposures of local farmers
in the county. Farmers Alliance has grown to an organization that
writes more than $160 million of premium across an eight-state region.

agri-business, make us uniquely suited to serve Kansans. We believe
our people are our greatest asset, and strive to provide exceptional
customer service to our agents and our policyholders.
What are the company’s future plans?
Our focus will continue to be on growing in the rural communities
and agri-business market, while maintaining our high levels of service.
