LESSONS LEARNT A1. FARMERS’ SIDEFarmers with no expectation show great
interest
- Minimize the mental & physical pressure coming from Creditors
- Use of Insurance policy as collateral improves their bankability
- Improve their negotiating power with Creditors
Cooperatives/Union willing & capable to act as policy holders on their members behalf.

A2. INSURERS’ SIDE Lack adequate/reliable data to ensure
quantity product design/costingCosting not actuarian derived - Unknown risks entail high premium - Major & reliable re-insurers show
little or no interestHave low human & infrastructure
capacity - Inadequate field visits
- Minimal training to own staff & farmers/union officials/Gov’t Dev. Agents

A3. GOVERNMENT SIDENo. Regulation for Micro Insurance yetMI & MF activities not integrated in the
food security strategyCreated uneven competitive ground
for financial players. - MF income tax exempted - MF’s credit collection more or less
enforcable by governmentDevelopment Agents not being used
as financial educators of farmers

pre studies/research Obssesed with paper work Give less emphasis on human &
infrastructure capacity building Promote short term year- to- year
programe. Need to revisit capability &
acceptabilty of their staff
