Act as soon as severe weather is forecast — don't wait for the warning. Work through this checklist starting 48 hours before expected impact. Livestock safety is the first priority. Secure equipment second. Document pre-event conditions for insurance.
A pre-event preparation checklist for farmers and farm managers securing the property before severe weather — storms, floods, frost, extreme heat, or drought. Covers livestock shelter and water supply, equipment and machinery securing, crop protection measures, irrigation and water system shutdown, feed and fuel reserve verification, building and infrastructure protection, and the communication plan for staff and emergency services.
Severe weather events cause more agricultural financial loss than any other single factor. The difference between manageable damage and catastrophic loss is often the preparation done in the 24–48 hours before the event arrives. This checklist ensures systematic preparation when time is limited and stress is high.
