What type of insurance coverage can protect Farmer Scott from liability due to goat waste runoff?

Farm pollution liability is specifically designed to protect farmers and agricultural operations from liabilities arising from pollution-related incidents. In the context of Farmer Scott, goat waste runoff could potentially contaminate nearby water sources or soil, leading to environmental damage. This type of insurance coverage addresses the unique risks associated with farming practices that could result in environmental harm or pollution.

General liability insurance typically covers bodily injury and property damage claims but may not extend to pollution-related incidents or environmental claims, which makes it less suitable for this specific risk. Environmental liability insurance is broader and focuses primarily on damages related to environmental impacts, but farm pollution liability is tailored specifically for agricultural operations and their unique needs.

Property damage insurance generally protects against loss or damage to tangible property, which does not address the liability aspect of potential pollution caused by goat waste runoff. Therefore, farm pollution liability is the most appropriate coverage for providing protection against liabilities related to this specific situation.
