The Effectiveness of Weather-Based Index Insurance and Area-Yield Crop Insurance: How Reliable are ex post Predictions for Yield Risk Reduction?
Bokusheva, Raushan; Breustedt, Gunnar - In: Quarterly Journal of International Agriculture 51
An ex post measure of risk reduction is commonly used in the literature to predict the potential reduction of farmers’ yield risk due to weather-based index insurance and area-yield crop insurance. In this paper, we evaluate the predictive power of the ex post risk reduction for different...

Production Risk, Technology and Market Access in Different Organisational Forms: Evidence from Tatarstan and Oryol
Gataulina, Ekaterina; Hockmann, Heinrich; Strokov, Anton - In: Quarterly Journal of International Agriculture 53
This paper examines price and technology differentials between agroholdings and independent farms in two Russian regions: Oryol and Tatarstan. Both organisational forms receive on average the same product prices which indicates that they have the same market access. Moreover, their technologies...

Risk attitude, planting conditions and the value of seasonal forecasts to a dryland wheat grower
Marshall, GR; Parton, KA; Hammer, GL - 1996
The value of a seasonal forecasting system based on phases of the Southern Oscillation was estimated for a representative dryland wheat grower in the vicinity of Goondiwindi. In particular the effects on this estimate of risk attitude and planting conditions were examined. A recursive stochastic...

Agricultural insurances based on meteorological indices: realizations, methods and research agenda
Leblois, Antoine; Quirion, Philippe - 2010
In many low-income countries, agriculture is mostly rainfed and yields highly depend on climatic factors. Furthermore, farmers have little access to traditional crop insurance, which suffers from high information asymmetry and transaction costs. Insurances based on meteorological indices could...
