Unfortunately, there are not many protections in place for unscrupulous business practices on the continent of Africa. This is precisely why we have chosen to do business “ONLY” with companies who are government subsidized. As you may or may not know, when a business receives subsidies from the government they must abide by a strict set of rules. Nonconformity can result in a company’s governmental status being revoked and, in some cases, nonconformity can even result in jail time. This gives us a more settled feeling to know that the local governments are backing our partners.

It covers any loss of crops for any natural reason including but not limited to volcanic activity, seismic activity, windstorms, dust storms, locusts etc… However, the policy does not cover for war, riots, or floods. Also, the insurance will pay to the partner only 85% of what the expected return would have been.

Yes, the option is totally up to the individual. One can keep all their returns, one can reinvest their returns, one can divide their returns how they wish and maybe only reinvest a portion.
