Description The Index-Based Livestock Insurance (IBLI) product
leverages the strong correlation between a remotely
sensed vegetation index and livestock losses associated
with forage shortages to offer insurance coverage to
pastoralists in regions without access to conventional
insurance products. The IBLI product was first launched
in January 2010 and is now available in several regions
of northern Kenya and in the Borana region of southern
Ethiopia.
