Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book explores crop insurance's evolution in the US, from its humble beginnings to the present day, providing us with a better understanding of how it protects farmers against unpredictable crop losses arising from natural perils. The author traces two main kinds of crop insurance -crop-hail and all-risk crop insurance- describing how each protects farmers and the key differences between them. Crop insurance remains a crucial tool for farmers to manage risk in an industry highly susceptible to the whims of nature, and this book provides an in-depth look at how it has served that role. The author delves into the intricacies of crop yields and variability, meticulously analyzing how these factors influence insurance coverage, premiums, and indemnities. The book also examines the concept of adverse insurance risks and illustrates how normal distribution theory and statistical procedures can be used to project probable indemnities in all-risk crop insurance. The author emphasizes the need for capital reserve funds to cover unusual crop loss years and discusses the various strategies insurers can employ to establish such reserves. Overall, this book offers a comprehensive examination of crop insurance, providing valuable insights into its history, structure, and significance in the agricultural sector. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
