This approach eliminates the need for lengthy claims processes and ensures that farmers receive swift and fair compensation when needed. It marks a significant departure from traditional insurance methods and sets a new standard for agricultural insurance in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv8675102561MsoNormal\">The livestock insurance cover and its delivery mechanism is a comprehensive insurance cover that seeks to protect poor, vulnerable pastoralists\u2019 households against loss of grasslands due to climate change related risks such as droughts and degradation of vegetation along with unexpected events that may result in the death of the livestock.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv8675102561MsoNormal\">The Head of Agric. Insurance at Leadway Assurance, Mr. Fatona Ayoola, expressed his excitement about this milestone in the insurance industry, saying, &#8220;The introduction of IBLI is truly a game-changer for Nigerian farmers involved in the livestock production value chain. For too long, our farmers have been exposed to the unpredictability of our weather conditions, attributable to climate change and other unforeseen events that can devastate their livestock, thereby affecting their livelihoods. This innovative product is designed to address the challenges of inadequate pasture\/forage for the animals and provide investment and financial security to our livestock farmers, herders and pastoralists.<\/p><div data-ad-id=\"32665\" style=\"text-align:center; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px;float:none;\" class=\"afw afw_ad_image afw_ad afwadid-32665  \">\r\n                                                            <div style=\"font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#cccccc;\">Advertisement<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.accessbankplc.com\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"auto\" max-width=\"100%\" src=\"https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Banner-1.jpg\"><\/a>\r\n                                                                        \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p class=\"yiv8675102561MsoNormal\">The MD\/CEO of Leadway Assurance, Mr. Tunde Hassan-Odukale, commented on the strategic importance of this product for the Nigerian insurance industry, stating, &#8220;This launch represents a pivotal moment in our industry&#8217;s history.

Index-Based Livestock Insurance is not only a testament to our commitment to innovation but also a testament to our dedication to supporting the growth of Agriculture in Nigeria.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv8675102561MsoNormal\">Mr. Hassan-Odukale continued, &#8220;By providing farmers with a reliable safety net through this product, we are not only mitigating risks but also fostering economic stability in the agricultural sector. As a company, we are proud to be at the forefront of this transformation, and we firmly believe that this innovative approach will drive progress and prosperity for Nigerian farmers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv8675102561MsoNormal\">The benefits of Index-Based Livestock Insurance extend beyond individual farmers to the broader agricultural sector and the Nigerian economy. This product will help farmers recover from losses faster, enabling them to reinvest in their operations and contribute to increased food production, job creation, and economic growth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv8675102561MsoNormal\">Mr. Hassan-Odukale, therefore, invites all stakeholders, including farmers, agricultural organizations, and government agencies, to explore the opportunities presented by Index-Based Livestock Insurance and join Leadway in building a more resilient and prosperous future for Nigerian agriculture.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv8675102561MsoNormal\">\n<p class=\"yiv8675102561MsoNormal\" align=\"center\">\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/p><!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leadway Assurance, one of Nigeria&#8217;s leading insurance providers, is proud to announce the launch of Index-Based Livestock Insurance (IBLI), a groundbreaking product that will reshape the insurance landscape in the country.<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":75715,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23,17],"tags":[10472,9952],"coauthors":[2391],"class_list":["post-75714","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-business","category-news","tag-leadway-assurance","tag-leadway-insurance"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.9 -
