Nigerian Agricultural Insurance Corporation

Nigerian Agricultural Insurance Corporation is wholly owned by the Federal Government of Nigeria. It was establish in 1987 to provide risk cover to Nigerian farmer’s. It is also the only existing insurance company owned by the Federal Government due to its unique socio–economic benefits to the populace.

The need for a specialized Agricultural Insurance Company to provide insurance cover to farmers was informed by Government’s concern over the vacuum created due to the unwillingness of conventional Insurers to accept Agricultural risks which they considered too risky. The implementation of the scheme was thus initially vested in the Nigerian Agricultural Insurance Company limited, which later turned into a corporation in 1993 by enabling decree No. 37 of 1993.

VISION
