Editor's Notes
- #2 I really appreciate the host for inviting BAAC to join this forum. What I’m speaking today derived from BAAC’s experience on Agricultural Weather Index Insurance.
- #3 This presentation comprises 5 elements About BAAC To get to know why BAAC is involved in risk management. Why risk management? The need to perform risk management How to manage risk? Or how can we mitigate risk? Weather index Insurance Next step , what shall be done next?
- #5 BAAC’s vision focuses on the importance of the uplift of small scale farmers’ quality of life.
- #6 BAAC has provided financial assistance to 6.1 million farmers, or 98 % of total farm households through its extensive branch network, covering every district across the country.
- #7 At the end of fiscal year 2009 , the loan outstanding was USD 15.78 billion, of which 90% was loans extended to individual farmers .
- #8 Deposits from general public is the main source of fund, accounted for 84% of total operating fund. That is why we need to manage risk in agriculture.
- #10 There are 7 key factors in management of risk in agricultural sector. Importance of agriculture Vulnerability to hydro-meteorological risks Burden on public resources Good weather data infrastructure Strong interest from stakeholders Growing insurance sector Strong agricultural bank
- #12 There are 2 approaches , traditional agricultural reinsurance and weather index insurance .
- #15 In response to this challenges, effective and cost-effective crop insurance programs have been designed. One of those is weather index insurance.
- #16 What does weather index insurance in Thailand look like?
- #17 A cotton insurance was pilot-tested in Thailand in 1977. Several attempt has been made to run such insurance. However, it was stuck by earlier mentioned problems. In 2006, the weather index insurance was introduced.
- #18 We purse here a model of “ Bank-intermediated weather insurance contracts to farmers” Farmers expose to weather risks which result in difficulty in paying back their loans. They want to have insurance, but lack of access to insurance companies which are mostly urban-based. In this situation, it is more efficient to have an institution perform the role of a risk aggregator. This could be performed by Ag. Banks or any organization with farmer outreach, for , Village Banks and Cooperatives. The Bank could intermediate the contracts to the farmers. This could also be linked to loans.
- #19 We currently have 2 models, World Bank model and JBIC model.
- #20 Let me introduce you World Bank model first. These are samples of rain gauges which are very important to weather index insurance operation.
- #21 This model has been implemented in India and many countries in Africa.
- #22 This picture displays World Bank’s drought insurance , covering 3 periods of maize production .
- #23 BAAC pilot-tested weather index insurance in 1 district in 2006. No insurance fee was collected.
- #24 In 2007, index insurance was fully implemented in the pilot –testing district with participation of 35 farmers and fee collection of USD 2,590.
- #25 In 2008, the project was expanded, covering 8 districts in 5 provinces
- #26 In 2009, weather index insurance project was scaled up to 15 districts in 5 provinces.
- #27 In 2010, the project is being implemented in 7 provinces with over 3,000 farmer participants.
- #28 Later, JBIC proposed a different model from that of World Bank.
- #29 This model was implemented by Sompo Insurance Company registered in Thailand
- #30 The significant difference is cumulative rainfall at the end of harvest season used in the project. Insurance fee is 4.6 % of loan principle.
- #31 JBIC drought insurance for rice production model was pilot-tested in Khon Kaen in 2009. There were 276 farmers participating in this project. No insurance fee was collected.
- #32 Consequently, in 2009, JBIC model project was implemented with participation of 1,158 farmers. Participating farmers were required to pay insurance fee.
- #33 Both models tend to grow in terms of number of participating farmers and coverage area as well as fees collected under these projects
