<dc:description xml:lang="es">Sumario: African farmers are heavily exposed to weather-related events like floods and droughts, especially as roughly 80% of them are smallholder and family-based farmers, running an open roof business. The other 20% are larger agricultural companies and cooperatives. If a harvest is destroyed, the farmers lose their income. This often means that farming is abandoned altogether, since the resources to continue are no longer there. Insurance helps to keep farmers in business when disaster strikes. Tailormade products are available for any type of farming  be it smallholder farmers or large professional enterprises </dc:description>
