Mmegi: "De Graaf said his ministry would continue to educate farmers about the importance of insurance and get them to understand that farmers who took out insurance for their livestock were considered commercial. He said the ministry was encouraging all farmers to consider agricultural businesses as commercial and to improve their productivity and ensure its sustainability. The scheme, which is run by Botswana Insurance Company, currently covers cattle, goats and sheep and is on course to cover crops. A farmer can select the animals he wishes to insure if he or she does not want to insure his entire herd.
