Brief introduction of weather insurance

"For example, a farmer's fish pond was destroyed by heavy rain. Who should compensate for the loss? You can't pray to god. What we do is to buy weather index insurance for farmers through the government. When the actual rainstorm index exceeds the forecast rainstorm index, we can get compensation from the insurance company. " Researcher Jiang Tong said.

Of course, there are still many problems to be improved and tried. However, with extreme weather becoming more and more common, this kind of insurance covers many fields, especially in the vast rural areas of China. Due to climate change, farmers may suffer more losses in vegetables and grains.
