Demand for drought insurance in Ethiopia
Tadesse, M.
Demand for drought insurance in Ethiopia - Luxemburg (Austria) Publications Office of the European Union : 2013
Although food-for-work or cash-for-work programmes are popular in many developing countries, the idea of work for insurance is new. Using a choice experiment approach in the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples? Region (SNNPR) and Oromia Region of Ethiopia, we found that smallholders are interested in these types of insurance products and insurance premium payment vehicles, and that most of them are willing to participate in the insurance-for-work programme at lower daily wage rates than those commonly found in food-for-work or cashfor-work safety net programmes. However, most are financially restricted to paying premiums in cash unless subsidised
