摘要

Experience to date indicates that it is extremely difficult, without massive government subsidies, to insure farm-level crop yields from losses caused by any number of natural perils. Those who seek effective, agricultural risk management tools, offered with little or no government subsidy, need to understand the underlying problems with farm-level, multiple-peril crop insurance. This chapter begins by discussing those problems. The following section presents an alternative form of insurance that makes payments based not on measures of individual farm yields, but rather on either area yields or some weather event like temperature or rainfall. This alternative form of insurance is often referred to as "index" insurance, since payments are triggered by realizations of a pre-specified index measure rather than by realized farm yields. Index insurance holds significant promise for a number of reasons. In some situations, index insurance offers superior risk protection when compared to traditional multiple-peril crop insurance that pays indemnities based on individual farm yields. Second, index insurance provides an effective policy alternative for governments seeking to protect the agricultural production sector from widespread, positively correlated, crop yield losses (e.g., drought). Finally, when index insurance is used to shift the risk of widespread crop losses to financial and reinsurance markets, the residual idiosyncratic risk often has characteristics that make it easier for local insurance markets to absorb.
