The insurance covers roll over, damage from a tree falling on it, theft, vandalism etc. My bank requires insurance coverage.If you have a secure place to store your tractor at your house like in a shop or barn I wonder if insurance is even necessary. If I kept it at a remote farm where no one lived, or outside I would probably insure. For me the odds of something happening to it are so low I don't insure mine. Not against insurance at all I spend over 10k a year on insurance for various things like equipment that gets taken to and left at job sites and such but I don't worry about my tractor.
