This book provides an in-depth  analysis and evaluation of government provided crop insurance in  developed countries. \u003cbr\u003e  The book is organized into three sections: Part one presents  background material on crop insurance programs in the U.S., Canada and  selected other countries. Part two provides some analytical models of  multiple peril crop insurance which suggest the possibility of  modification of design which could improve performance and which  explores theoretical linkages between crop insurance decisions and  other producer decisions previously not analyzed. The main part of the  book is Part three, where the results of a series of empirical studies  using databases particularly designed to answer crop insurance  questions are presented. This part of the book tests a number of the  hypotheses which were raised in Parts one and two regarding reasons  for the view widely held by economists that crop insurance has not  functioned well. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1994-04-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792394358\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-1386-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 380\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46916142727308,"sku":"9780792394358","price":197.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792394358.jpg?v=1774494454","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792394358","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
