The data were provided to the World Bank International Finance Corporation (IFC) at the end of 2018. Supported by the governments of Austria and Hungary, IFC drives a project to develop the agroinsurance business in Kosovo.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hail analysis strengthens agricultural development<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Agriculture accounts for 13% of the Balkan republic\u2019s GDP. Almost one third of the population of Kosovo, which gained independence from Serbia in 2008, works in the tertiary sector. \u201cThe biggest problem for agriculture consists in getting access to financial funds. As there are hardly any insurance products for agricultural risk, banks do not give out any loans, analyses Leah Soroka, IFC Project Leader at the World Bank.<\/p>\n<p>As farmers have had hardly any opportunity to get access to seeds, fertilizer and machines, they have not been able to increase their production. The economic development of one of the world\u2019s poorest regions has thus been substantially impaired. \u201cWith our hail data we have contributed to changing this and offer new opportunities to the people concerned.,\u201d says UBIMET Founder &amp; CEO Michael Fassnauer proudly.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":21557,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":""},"categories":[6779,26,1551],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.8 -
