Focus on the situation of agricultural insurance in Tunisia

Several studies and papers presented during the African Reinsurance Forum have allowed to take stock of the situation of agricultural insurance in Tunisia. Statistics show that with a premium volume of 24.4 million TND (18.3 million USD) out of a total amount of 878 million TND (660 million USD) collected in 2007, agricultural insurance accounts for only 2.78% of the Tunisian market. According to the business experts, the deficit in farmers' affiliation (40 000 affiliates, that is, 7.75% of the total number of farm operators) is accounted for by the land parceling as well as by the high cost of premiums.
