OPENING THE KNOWLEDGE ON NIGERIA’S AGRICULTURE INSURANCE SCHEME

Introduction

Ignorance, they say, is the mother of all evils. And true to the above, many Farmers in Nigeria have suffered and are suffering huge losses of their crops and animals due to several issues - ranging from natural disaster to man-made errors - without any form of compensation made to them and to which they could fall back to for support. Usually, this is because Farmers are unaware of the fact that they could have ameliorated their plight by subscribing to a national agricultural insurance policy in existence.
