"The discussion held in the Ministry of agriculture of Russia has demonstrated the urgent need to strengthen insurance protection of agrarians of the Far East, – said the President of the National Union of agricultural insurers the Roots of Beidou, commenting on the results of the meeting on September 17. – If the declared losses of more than RUB 3.2 billion, only 6% of damage to farms, crops which suffered this year from floods and cyclones have on the area insured. Consequently, the remaining 94% of the damages received by farmers resulting from the loss of production from the flooded and waterlogged fields that were not insured. Higher risks in these regions require a special approach to the organization of insurance coverage. In this regard, ECA has made a proposal about developing a special insurance program for the far Eastern regions which are most exposed to risks of the monsoon climate".
