| Agricultural production systems are exposed to adverse climatic hazards such as drought. Drought spells can infringe severe impacts in most vulnerable farms. It is well known that uninsured exposure exacerbates income inequality in farming systems (Rosenzweig and Binswager, 1986) and eventually results in welfare losses for rural families (Dercon, 2003). The advantages of farmers who have access to financial tools have been widely acknowledged (Sen, 1966). However, high administrative costs of traditional insurance hinder small farmers? access to risk management tools. The existence of moral hazard and systemic risk prevents the implementation of traditional insurance programs to address the risk of drought in rural areas (Goodwin, 2001). | |
