Pottencial Seguradora is expanding its presence in the Brazilian agribusiness sector, specifically targeting the growing drone market. The company reported that agricultural premiums currently account for R$ 190 million, or 10% of its total, with a goal to reach R$ 250 million by 2027.

A specialized drone insurance product, launched three months prior to recent reports, has already generated R$ 1.5 million in premiums and covers approximately 200 units. This growth aligns with a significant increase in the Brazilian agricultural drone fleet, which rose from 3,000 units in 2021 to 35,000 in 2025. The policy provides coverage for equipment damage, theft, fire, electrical issues, civil liability, and financial compensation during repairs, as well as protection against third-party damages like pesticide drift. To qualify, both the operator and equipment must be registered with ANAC and the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock (MAPA).

Additionally, the onset of wildfire season in regions such as Minas Gerais has increased the demand for property and rural insurance. Low humidity and high temperatures have heightened risks to crops, machinery, and warehouses, positioning insurance as a tool to mitigate financial losses during environmental stress.
