The impact of policy-oriented agricultural insurance on China’s grain production resilience by Tao Zheng, Tao Zheng, Tao Zheng, Guiqian Zhao

“…Additionally, the impact of policy-oriented agricultural insurance on grain production resilience in high risk areas is more pronounced than that in low risk areas. At the same time, the mechanism analysis shows that policy-oriented agricultural insurance can have a positive impact on grain production resilience by improving agricultural technology progress, land transfer, and grain cultivation specialization.DiscussionThis paper reveals that policy-oriented agricultural insurance has a positive impact on grain production resilience and provides relevant policy suggestions for the government. …”
