Título: Does agricultural insurance help farmers escape the poverty trap? Research based on multiple equilibrium models / Pu Liao, Xianhua Zhou, Qingquan FanAutor: Liao, Pu
Notas: Sumario: This paper considers a risk poverty trap model in which technology adoption depends on the individual's capital level. Agricultural insurance and premium subsidies are then introduced to analyse poverty alleviation resulting from agricultural insurance. For individuals with capital above a threshold, insurance can be helpful, since it lets them stay above the threshold. Agricultural insurance does not help peasants escape deep poverty, because premiums keep them below the threshold. Moreover, premium subsidies would strengthen the poverty reduction resulting from insurance, as the increased income and the risk elimination would move some peasants above the critical threshold.Registros relacionados: En: Geneva papers on risk and insurance : issues and practice. - Geneva : The Geneva Association, 1976- = ISSN 1018-5895. - 01/01/2020 Volumen 45 Número 1 - enero 2020 , p. 203- 223Materia / lugar / evento: Seguros agrarios Pobreza Agricultores Equilibrio económico Subsidios Pago de la prima Control de riesgos Estudios de investigación China Otros autores: Zhou, Xianhua
