Title 10, Chapter 4, Section 25
( 10-4-25)
All agricultural products stored for the producer in their raw or
natural state, and cotton in any form stored for the producer, in
storage in a warehouse under this article or deposited temporarily
in such a warehouse pending storage shall be kept insured at full
market value by the warehouseman against loss or damage by fire,
lightning, and extended coverage, except that cotton shall be
insured against loss or damage by fire and lightning only. Such
insurance shall be carried in an insurance company or companies of
the warehouseman's choice authorized to do business in this state,
and evidence of such insurance coverage in form to be approved by
the Commissioner of Insurance shall be filed with the Commissioner
of Agriculture. Such insurance shall be provided by, and carried in
the name of, the warehouseman; provided, however, that a producer
depositing or storing agricultural products who does not wish to
have his products insured by the warehouseman may relieve the
warehouseman of that duty by notifying the warehouseman in writing
that he does not wish his agricultural products insured. |
