Book excerpt: This study aims to assess the potential for the introduction of agricultural insurance services in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) in the Philippines, with a view to fostering smallholders’ resilience against extreme natural events, such as floods, droughts and hurricanes, and promote their capacity to recover from such shocks. The study focuses on analysing and showcasing the opportunities and benefits associated with the introduction of tailored disaster risk insurance protection for small-scale farmers in BARMM; the core roadblocks and constraints that limit the diffusion of such services in the region’s agriculture sector; and options for the implementation of agri-insurance coverage based on different scenarios of collaboration involving public, private and non-profit stakeholders active in the region. The study was conceived as a general reference document and starting point for all types of stakeholders – government authorities, development agencies, financial institutions and non-governmental organizations – interested in designing and promoting agricultural insurance services for vulnerable actors in the Bangsamoro region.
