The discussion is of historical significance partly for the small contribution it makes to the history of the insurance industry, but chiefly because of what it implies about the attitudes to risk of English landed society and the information it provides on the business of farming in England, a topic on which the literature is ‘remarkably thin’. Section I of this article reports quantitative evidence on the size of some specific farming risks from the mid-eighteenth century to the mid-nineteenth, and finds that their magnitude was far from insignificant and did not always fall over time. Section II examines the importance of commercial agricultural insurance, and sections III and IV survey some of the methods of informal insurance available(that is, risk-reducing arrangements not codified as formal contracts);they focus respectively on farm diversification and landlord=tenant risk sharing .None of these methods, it is argued, reduced the risk faced by fixed rent farmers to trivial proportions. Other forms of risk management—notably accessing the capital market, forward contracts, and part-time off-farm employment—are undoubtedly important but fall outside the limited scope of this article. Section V seeks to quantify the overall extent and allocation of risk by considering data on farmers’ profits, landlords’ rents, and farming failures, and as is concluded in section VI, provides some empirical support for the argument that farmers were the residual claimants.
