Agricultural bet88 con to be promoted
Mr. Ngo Trung Dung, Deputy Secretary General of the bet88 con Association of Vietnam (IAV), spoke with VET’s Hoang Lan about promoting agricultural bet88 con given that risks posed by natural disasters will only rise.

Typhoon Yagi caused significant economic damage in Vietnam, particularly to agricultural production. In light of the increasing risks posed by natural disasters, how has agricultural bet88 con developed in recent times?
On March 1, 2011, the Prime Minister issued Decision No. 315/QD-TTgon the pilot provision of agricultural bet88 con during the 2011-2013 period, focusing on certain regions and key agricultural sectors such as rice, livestock, poultry, and aquaculture. The government offered bet88 con premium subsidies ranging from 20 to 100 per cent, depending on the participants, which included the poor, near-poor, and regular farmers.
Agricultural bet88 con payout rates tend to be high in Vietnam due to the substantial risks posed by natural disasters and disease outbreaks. Reports indicate that payout rates can range from 70-90 per cent for significant losses, particularly in areas like rice, shrimp farming, and livestock. In some cases, annual loss ratios have surpassed 100 per cent, and in extreme instances even exceeded 200 per cent.
However, this pilot agricultural bet88 con program encountered various challenges, particularly with procedures and monitoring mechanisms. Additionally, its coverage was limited, focusing on specific provinces and participant groups, which left many farmers in other areas without access to bet88 con.
The Ministry of Finance only allowed a select few bet88 con companies, such as Bao Viet bet88 con, Bao Minh bet88 con, and a handful of others to take part in the pilot. Given the high risks involved in the agriculture sector, many insurers remain cautious about entering the market. Moreover, they face their own difficulties in securing reinsurance for large-scale risks.
Why is there a lack of interest in agricultural bet88 con?
The challenges in increasing agricultural bet88 con penetration come from both supply and demand.
On the demand side, many Vietnamese farmers earn low incomes, making it difficult to afford bet88 con premiums, especially when there isn’t sufficient government support in sharing this responsibility. Additionally, many don’t clearly see the short and long-term benefits of taking out bet88 con. The claims process, meanwhile, can be complex, requiring specific assessments that take time, and the lack of accurate data to assess damage can lead to delays in payouts, which often fall short of farmers’ expectations.
On the supply side, climate change has heightened the risk of unpredictable natural disasters like storms and floods, increasing the uncertainty in the agricultural sector. This forces bet88 con companies to carefully consider the level of risk, premium rates, deductibles, and the terms of bet88 con policies.
To make agricultural bet88 con more effective in the future, awareness campaigns are needed to educate farmers on the benefits of taking out such bet88 con. The government should also offer appropriate financial support, such as the State and farmers sharing responsibility for taking out bet88 con, as mentioned earlier. If such measures were to be implemented, I believe agricultural bet88 con has the potential to make significant progress and deliver promising results in the years to come.
What is your outlook on the growth of agricultural bet88 con in the years ahead?
In my opinion, for an agricultural country like Vietnam, where over 60 per cent of the population lives in rural areas and primarily relies on farming, agricultural bet88 con will gradually become essential for several reasons.
Firstly, agriculture is heavily impacted by natural disasters, disease outbreaks, and climate change-related events such as storms, floods, droughts, and pestilence. bet88 con products can help farmers share and reduce the financial burden of unforeseen risks, protecting their income and stabilizing their economic well-being. When losses occur, payouts provide financial support to help farmers recover and resume production quickly.
Secondly, when farmers know their assets are “protected from risks” through appropriate bet88 con products, they will feel more confident in expanding their production. If risks arise, bet88 con provides financial backing to help them get back on track. This will also encourage farmers to adopt new technologies and improve production efficiency without fearing natural disasters. This leads to increased productivity, better quality agricultural products for domestic and export markets, and greater demand for agricultural bet88 con and related industries like imports and exports. In turn, this will contribute to the sustainable development of Vietnam’s agricultural sector.
Thirdly, as agricultural bet88 con expands, it will contribute to the broader development of Vietnam’s bet88 con market. More bet88 con companies will enter the sector, offering a wider variety of products. This will create healthy competition between insurers, ensuring better products tailored to farmers’ needs and offering more choice for both individual farmers and agricultural businesses.
Globally, disaster bet88 con products for individuals and communities have seen significant growth over recent years. What has happened in Vietnam?
bet88 con companies in Vietnam have been exploring and continue to explore the introduction of specialized disaster bet88 con products. These offerings include property bet88 con, home bet88 con, agricultural bet88 con, and business bet88 con.
Property bet88 con provided by these companies includes coverage for risks such as floods, storms, earthquakes, and landslides, like Typhoon Yagi. This type of bet88 con helps both individuals and businesses reduce financial losses from natural disasters.
As previously mentioned, agricultural bet88 con is a vital product for farmers and agricultural enterprises, offering protection for crops and livestock against natural disasters like storms, droughts, and floods. The Vietnamese Government has launched an agricultural bet88 con program with State support to encourage farmers to join, and I foresee this product gaining more momentum in the near future.
Typhoon Yagi resulted in the largest payouts in the history of Vietnam’s bet88 con industry. How do bet88 con companies manage their financial stability and ensure they can cover claims?
Vietnam’s bet88 con market has experienced rapid growth, and local insurers are increasingly recognizing the need to bolster their financial strength and establish contingency mechanisms to handle risks from natural disasters. Some of the methods employed include reinsurance, increasing capital, and building risk reserves.
Domestic insurers are enhancing cooperation with international reinsurance organizations through reinsurance agreements with major global reinsurers like Swiss Re and Munich Re to reduce risks and safeguard themselves from substantial financial losses when disasters strike. This ensures that bet88 con firms maintain strong financial health and can provide timely and adequate compensation to policyholders.
Over the past few years, many bet88 con companies have consistently raised capital and built reserve funds to better respond to natural disasters and set aside provisions for large, exceptional payouts when disasters occur.
In the current era of rapid digital transformation, how is technology being integrated into claims assessment and risk management in the bet88 con industry?
Drone technology, with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) enabling broad damage assessments, and satellite systems will be utilized to monitor and evaluate damage in regions affected by natural disasters such as floods and storms; a practice already implemented in advanced European countries. This will streamline the claims assessment process, making it faster and more accurate while reducing compensation disputes.
Moreover, the bet88 con industry is leveraging big data and AI to analyze disaster patterns, predict risks, and more accurately calculate bet88 con premiums, which is known as risk modeling. Such technologies also enhance decision-making efficiency and help insurers manage risks more effectively.
Many bet88 con companies are also focused on improving disaster forecasting capabilities, which are critical for more accurate budget planning in response to natural disasters. This involves developing quantitative risk models and establishing databases on disaster risks, particularly for public assets. Such tools help determine the frequency and severity of disasters, allowing insurers to formulate appropriate financial and bet88 con plans.
The bet88 con industry is also expanding collaboration with international and regional organizations to exchange knowledge and gain financial and technical support for disaster risk management.
Additionally, insurers are partnering with reinsurance companies to conduct awareness campaigns and training sessions, aimed at raising public awareness about the importance of bet88 con in mitigating the impact of natural disasters.
