How Are Emerging Trends Reshaping The Dynamics Of The Livestock Insurance Market?
Significant players in the livestock insurance sector are focused on devising insurance solutions laden with multiple benefits, such as parametric heat-stress insurance. This is aimed at providing more exact and adaptable coverage options while broadening their market footprint. Payments from the parametric heat-stress insurance for cattle are made based on stipulated weather conditions indicative of heat stress rather than the farmer's actual incurred losses. For instance, NFU Mutual, a rural insurer based in the UK, collaborated with Skyline Partners, Markel Group, (a specialty insurance provider from the US), and Arthur J. Gallagher & Co., (a US-based insurance broker). They launched a trailblazing parametric heat-stress insurance specifically designed for UK dairy farmers in May 2023. This novel coverage employs an index-based procedure, issuing pre-determined payouts instigated by specific weather conditions, tracked through satellite and ground weather station data, intended to protect against financial losses from heat-stressed cattle.
