Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company offers American Farm Bureau members in 10 southern states life, disability, and long-term care insurance. The company also provides retirement planning and various financial services.

Founded in 1946, Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company was formed when many farmers were looking for one thing: Life insurance. Originally started by the Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi and Texas Farm Bureaus, other states eventually joined and the organization was born. Over time and with the support of farmers and their rural communities, the types of insurance policies grew from basic coverage.

Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company credits much of its success to the company’s knowledge of the South and its Farm Bureau members, handling business in a “straightforward and down-to-Earth” kind of way.

The company is rated A+ (superior) by A.M. Best, and A (excellent) by TheStreet.com, formerly Weiss Ratings. Southern Farm Bureau Life is also named to Ward’s Top 50 safest and best performing insurers.

In addition to providing life insurance coverage for many Farm Bureau members, Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company also volunteers with the Adopt-A-School program, local tutoring programs, holiday charity projects, the Walk for Diabetes, Habitat for Humanity, and the American Cancer Society, among others.
