The Echo published an article about the refusal of farmers to insure their farms. The system of insurance of agricultural risks in Azerbaijan is not developed. In the country there is a situation when the producer (farmer) wants to receive an insurance policy covering important risks for him, but is not ready to pay for it.
In turn, insurance companies do not want to go on about farmers.
Farmers feel that farm insurance is a waste of money and they will not be able to receive adequate compensation in the event of a crop failure.
