| Abstract/Description: | Crop insurance is a critical tool for managing risk in agriculture, which is vulnerable to natural calamities and market fluctuations. India has a long history of crop insurance, and the government has introduced several schemes to protect farmers from crop losses and ensure their credit eligibility. This book chapter provides an overview of various crop insurance schemes in India, including the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY), National Agricultural Insurance Scheme (NAIS), Weather-based Crop Insurance Scheme (WBCIS), Modified National Agricultural Insurance Scheme (MNAIS), Coconut Palm Insurance Scheme (CPIS), and Livestock Insurance Scheme. The chapter discusses the key features, benefits, and challenges of each scheme, and highlights the need for more comprehensive and effective crop insurance in India. The chapter also examines the role of crop insurance in doubling farmers' income, promoting sustainable agriculture, and enhancing food security in India. The chapter concludes with recommendations for improving crop insurance schemes in India and increasing their uptake among farmers. |
