## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE AND FARMER S WELFAR E

कृ ष एवं कसान कयाण मंी (  S H RI NAR E N D R A  SIN G H  T OMA R)

- (a) : The yield based scheme, namely, Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFB Y) and a weather index based 'Restructured Weather Based Crop Insurance Scheme (RWBCI S) were introduced from Kharif  2016  with  an  aim  to  provide  a simple  and  affordable  crop  insurance  product  to  ensure comprehensive risk cover for crops of farmers against all non-preventable natural risks from presowing to post-harvest,  to provide adequate claim amount and timely settlement of claims.  18 General insurance companies including 5 Public Sector Insurance companies have been empanelled for implementation of the scheme.

Crop insurance is a major risk mitigation tool for the benefit of farmers. Insurance is all about spreading the risk over the period and over the area.  As per provisions of the PMFBY/RWB CI S , premium from farmers alongwith Central and State Government share in premium subsidy is paid to the concerned insurance company for acceptance of risk and payment of claims as per provision of scheme. Insurers save premium in good seasons/years and pay high claims, if any in bad years from the savings made in the good years.

Inspite of overall good monsoon during first two years of implementation of PMFB Y, the claim ratio during 2016-17 and 2017-18 was about 74% and 83% respectively.    But the farmers in most affected areas/States received higher claims and the claim ratio was high in these States viz. Kerala 209% and Karnataka-134%, during Kharif 2016,  Tamil Nadu - 286% and Andhra Pradesh 172% during Rabi 2016-17.  Similarly during Kharif 2017, the higher claim ratio is in the States of Chhattisgarh -451%, Haryana - 269%, Madhya Pradesh - 161% and Odisha - 216%.  During Rabi 2017-18 high claim ratio States were Odisha (226%), Tamil Nadu (122%) and Chhattisgarh (105%). Though complete data for Kharif 2018 season is not available, high Claims ratio has been reported in States  of  Himachal  Pradesh  (215%),  Haryana  (120%),  Uttarakhand  (115%)  and Chhattisgarh (111%)   Hence, it is not correct to say that private insurance companies have made windfall gains under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFB Y).

In this regard, it is also informed that the difference between premium collected and claims paid  is  not  the  margin/profit  for  the  insurance  companies.    The  cost  of  reinsurance  and administrative cost totaling 10% to 12% of gross premium also has to be borne by the Insurance Companies.  Further, out of the total crop insurance business under the scheme more than 50% is shared by the 5 Public  Sector insurance companies including Agriculture Insurance  Company of India Ltd. (AIC).

(b) : The details are given in Annexure .

(c) : Details  of  gross  premium  collected  and  claims  paid  by  empanelled  general  insurance companies and number of farmers benefitted during last two years and Kharif 2018 under PMFB Y are given below:
