Abstract

Este documento se centra en el manejo de riesgos de producción agrícola, explica los conceptos fundamentales y analiza los motivos por los que los mercados de seguros han demorado en desarrollarse en América Latina y el Caribe. Asimismo, formula recomendaciones para la creación de mercados sostenibles en contextos de países en desarrollo. En este trabajo, se sostiene que los escasos recursos públicos estarían mejor invertidos en la creación de condiciones de mercado favorables para el desarrollo de la industria en vez de hacer transferencias a personas individuales. En el contexto de los países en desarrollo con severas limitaciones fiscales; grandes poblaciones rurales y sectores agrícolas de proporciones considerables, los sistemas de seguros agrícolas deberían ser rentables y operar como parte de un marco de manejo de riesgos mayor y estratificado.
