This study identified that Brazil has good policies dedicated for risk management, although focused on risk mitigation. Response and transfer mechanisms, especially insurance, are still insufficient. The results also strongly suggest that the integration of policies and programs dedicate to agricultural risk management in Brazil is still low, consequently, it may be difficult to reduce the losses in a systematic way.
