Farm Insurance

Agricultural insurance is designed to protect farmers, livestock breeders, and operators against financial losses caused by natural hazards or accidents affecting their activity.
She covers several domains :

• Crops: losses due to drought, floods, hail, insects, diseases, fires, etc.
• Livestock farming: animal mortality, epidemics, theft, and accidents.
• Agricultural equipment: degradation, fire or theft of equipment.
• Farm buildings: damage to sheds, granaries, warehouses.

Main objectives:

• Secure agricultural income
• Encourage rural investment
• Strengthening resilience to climate change
• Promote access to credit

In Mali, this type of insurance is still developing, often supported by pilot projects, NGOs, or linked to micro-insurance.
