Looking at the dreaded insurance bill for 'farm owners' insurance. We heat one 12 x 12 room in our barn and the insurance is $1435.00 premium for a 210,000 barn value. Is it so high because of plugging in a radiator -looking heater or what? Looking for feedback on what others are paying and seeing if our costs are 'reasonable'?

It is high because they are betting they may have to rebuild your barn...in general, in rural areas, barn fires are normally total losses...
