Description
The regional workshop "Development of Aquaculture Insurance System for Small-scale Farmers" 20-21 September 2016, Bangkok, was joined by participants from China, Philippines, Thailand and Viet Nam.
It contains two parts. The first aimed at answering the question, "What would make insurance available for and accessible to small-scale farmers?" The second was focused on exploring potential shrimp insurance schemes.
The Workshop achieved the following outcomes: (1) made farmers, farmer advisers, researchers and academics more familiar with the business and technical requirements of insurers, (2) made insurers become more familiar with the circumstances and needs of farmers, (3) confirmed that insurers continue to view aquaculture as a high-risk industry, (4) highlighted the need to incorporate risk assessment and management in the development of better farm management practices in line with the requirements of insurance, and (5) confirmed the usefulness of bundling financial products in the development of institutional services for farmers.
