Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to examine the current state of agricultural risk insurance in Algeria by diagnosing the main agricultural risks arising from agricultural activities and identifying key factors that may contribute to risk management and minimize financial losses when they occur, while protecting agricultural wealth. It also includes an analysis of statistics and figures related to this insurance sector.
The study employs a descriptive and analytical approach to understand various concepts related to agricultural insurance, highlighting its importance both economically for the country and socially for farmers. This is achieved through the analysis of production statistics and compensation payments in this insurance sector for the period from 2000 to 2023.
The findings indicate that agricultural insurance is a crucial means of addressing such risks due to its numerous advantages. It provides insurance coverage for agricultural risks that investors may face, with compensation amounting to 16,957 million DZD over the study period. This significant amount illustrates the effective contribution of insurance in covering these risks.
