description Agricultural investment insurance, generically known as agricultural insurance, is the technical foundation for Comprehensive Risk anagement (Gestión Integral del Riesgo, abbreviated as: GIR) and is considered by specialists as an efficient tool for  planning the rural sector, with a territorial approach. In Colombia, many attempts have been made to establish, develop and apply it. However, due to multiple factors; among which the high moral hazard associated with corruption stands out, as well as to the low insurance culture; its implementation has had multiple drawbacks. In the last five years, this topic has gained significant relevance as an efficient tool for managing agricultural risks from environmental phenomena such as climate change and variability. This academic document systematically collects the author experiences compiled since 1993 developing technical processes for the management of agricultural risks of hydroclimatic origin, in insurance and reinsurance companies at a national and international level. The document is divided into five chapters: the first deals with the general aspects ofagricultural insurance; the second describes the coverage of agricultural insurance in Colombia; in the third, the eight crops insurable and prioritized by the regulations in Colombia are described at a general level; the fourth presents the calculation of  risk premiums and describes the processes of appraisal, subscription and adjustment of claims; and the fifth presents the  perspectives of agricultural insurance in Colombia. Finally, the conclusions, bibliography and annexes are indicated. The main strength of this book is that it contributes, hitherto unpublished, for the service of the academic community (researchers, students, educational and training institutions), as well as Colombian agriculture (producers, associations, unions, institutions  public and private).

The main strength of this book is that it contributes, hitherto unpublished, for the service of the academic community (researchers, students, educational and training institutions), as well as Colombian agriculture (producers, associations, unions, institutions  public and private). El Seguro a la Inversión Agrícola, normalmente conocido como Seguro agrícola, es el fundamento técnico para Gestión Integral del Riesgo (GIR), además de ser considerado por los especialistas como una herramienta eficiente para la planificación del sector rural, con enfoque territorial. En Colombia, se han realizado varios intentos por establecerlo, desarrollarlo y aplicarlo; no obstante, por múltiples factores entre los que se destaca el alto riesgo moral asociado a procesos de corrupción y la baja  cultura del uso del seguro, su implementación ha tenido múltiples inconvenientes. En el último lustro, esta temática ha tomado una significativa relevancia como una herramienta eficiente para la gestión de los riesgos agropecuarios a fenómenos  ambientales, como el cambio y la variabilidad climática. Este documento académico, recoge sistemáticamente, las experiencias del autor, recopiladas desde el año de 1993, por medio del desarrollo de procesos técnicos de asesoría especializada para el manejo de los riesgos agrícolas de origen hidroclimático en empresas aseguradoras y reaseguradoras a nivel nacional e  internacional. El libro, El Seguro a la Inversión Agrícola en Colombia: Fundamentos técnicos y metodológicos, se encuentra dividido en cinco capítulos: en el primero, se abordan las generalidades del Seguro Agrícola; en el segundo, se describen las  coberturas del Seguro Agrícola en Colombia; en el tercero, se muestran a nivel general, los 8 cultivos asegurables y priorizados por la normatividad en Colombia; en el cuarto capítulo, se presenta el cálculo de las primas de riesgo y se describen los procesos de peritación, suscripción y ajuste de siniestros y, en el quinto apartado, se presentan las perspectivas del Seguro  Agrícola en Colombia. Finalmente, se encuentran las conclusiones, la bibliografía y los anexos. La principal fortaleza de este libro, se centra en que hace un aporte, hasta ahora inédito, para el servicio de la comunidad académica (investigadores, estudiantes, instituciones de educación y formación), al igual que del agro colombiano (productores, asociaciones, gremios, instituciones públicas y privadas).
