Did you know about Tekana?
Tekana is the National Agriculture Insurance Scheme (NAIS), subsidized up to 40% by the Government of Rwanda. Its mission is simple but powerful: de-risk agriculture and help farmers access financial services with confidence.
Hereโs what it covers:
1. Crop Insurance
Protect your investment from planting to harvest.
- Crops covered: maize, rice, Irish potatoes, beans, soybeans, cassava, chili, French beans
- Risks covered: drought, floods, pests and diseases, landslides, hailstorms, and other climate shocks
2. Livestock Insurance
Secure your animals against unexpected loss.
- Animals covered: dairy cattle, pigs, poultry (layers and broilers), fish farming
- Risks covered: death caused by accidents, diseases, outbreaks, and epidemics
By de-risking your farm investment with Tekana, banks and financial institutions become more confident to support you with agricultural loans.
Protect your investment. Farm with confidence.
