Tanner Patzke specializes in Pasture, Rangeland & Forage Insurance policies. He has close ties in the agriculture community and has firsthand experience with the water issues farmers and ranchers experience. He has seen the affect the lack of water has on not only the agriculture community, but the economies of communities when agriculture production is shut down. Working with colleagues at WSR and meeting farmers and ranchers in various western states has given him the opportunity to develop a greater understanding and the skills needed to provide risk management solutions and products. Prior to getting his insurance license in 2016, Tanner worked as a heavy equipment operator and truck driver for a large road construction company. He’s also a partner, along with his dad and brother, at Patzke Family Cattle & Equine. Born and raised in the Klamath Basin, Tanner continues to enjoy roping at a competitive level. He also enjoys hunting, fishing, and all the outdoor activities the Klamath Basin has to offer.
