Our Team
Crawford Agriculture has around 200 people either employed by or contracted exclusively to Crawford. This ensures that in the advent of major events we have the in-field capacity to service your requirements quickly and efficiently.

Our team prides itself on excellent communication and negotiation skills, enabling us to secure cost-effective resolution of agricultural matters. We have an industry leading reputation for exceptional service, innovative fee structure and superior reporting standards.
Leading the industry with intelligent IT solutions
Specifically designed for agriculture and food-related claims in Australia, our IT platform, “AgClaims,” enables efficient handling of data and assessments from our remotely based field adjusters. It generates accurate and timely reports and ensures strong communication with all interested parties including the client and broker/agent.
The smartphone and iPad applications of AgClaims allow the remote transmission of claim assessments and quantification of losses. These applications are linked to the AgClaims crop database so that interfacing of the IT platform and field application systems ensure professional claims delivery and international accessibility.
Crawford Agriculture has also adopted commercial technologies such as satellite imagery, crop modelling, spray-drift modelling, crop vigour maps, crop biomass maps, harvester yield maps, drones, and other resources to improve the accuracy and efficiency of crop loss assessing.
