OVER 7,000 FARMERS TO BENEFIT FROM CROP INSURANCE SENSITIZATION PROGRAMME

top-news

MORE than 7,000 farmers across four provinces are expected to benefit from a sensitization programme aimed at promoting crop insurance as a way of securing their farming businesses against climate-related risks. Speaking during a sensitization training held at Sambala Agricultural Camp in Lunte District, Agriculture and Climate Risk Entreprise (ACRE) Africa Representative, Milimo Hazile said the initiative aims to encourage farmers to adopt climate risk transfer tools like crop insurance to protect their crops from disasters. “In addition to Sustainable Intensification Practices (SIPs), crop insurance is also important because it helps farmers derisk their investments and provide a safety net for them in case of a disaster that might put them at a loss,” he said. Mr. Hazile explained that the trainings are targeting camp extension officers, farmer cooperatives and lead farmers, who will in turn pass on the information to other farmers within their communities. “With this structured approach, we plan to train approximately over 7000 farmers across four provinces in the country,” he added. The sensitization programme will cover Southern, Copperbelt, Eastern and Northern provinces.  And Betsheba Kaputu, a Camp Officer welcomed the trainings and described them as timely due to increasingly unpredictable weather patterns. “A lot of farmers are always left at a loss when their farms are hit by floods, hailstorms and other disasters. At least now that they have been educated on crop insurance, they will know how to handle such situations and it is my job as their camp officer to guide them,” she said. Meanwhile, Sambala Cooperative Chairperson Joseph Lombe also expressed appreciation for the training. Mr. Lombe explained that farmers in his cooperative now understand the need to insure their crops in addition to adopting SIPs. “How we are farming now is different to how we used to farm in the past due to climate change, so it is very important that we insure our crops and safeguard our investments,” he said. The programme is expected to enhance climate resilience and improve the sustainability of smallholder farming businesses. The initiative is being implemented in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture, ACRE Africa, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), and the Sustainable Intensification of Smallholder Farming Systems in Zambia (SIFAZ) Project.- NAIS
