Description of the measure

Insurances for extreme weather events protect the farm from high economic loss

Comments on sustainability

Especially in risk regions, insurances against extreme weather events protect the farm from high economic loss so yield losses will not lead to a threat of livelihood. Agreements with the purchasers about yield losses are important.
