"In connection with the development of the insurance sector, a number of measures are being taken, and among them are development of agricultural insurance and the creation of a mechanism of agricultural insurance. In this regard, a model has already been defined, and the work of the Authority has been accelerated. Work is also underway on the creation of a mechanism of micro-insurance systems," said Agashirinov.
