Dublin, Feb. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Crop Reinsurance Market Report 2026” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The crop reinsurance market has experienced robust growth, increasing from $44.11 billion in 2025 to $46.96 billion in 2026, with a CAGR of 6.5%. This surge is driven by heightened climate-related agricultural losses, expansion of crop insurance portfolios by primary insurers, and the need for capital risk diversification. Furthermore, development within global reinsurance markets and the adoption of yield-based insurance products contribute to this growth.
Looking forward, the crop reinsurance market is projected to grow to $61.85 billion in 2030, achieving a CAGR of 7.1%. Key factors include an increased demand for climate-resilient reinsurance structures, heightened use of parametric and index-based products, and the expansion of public-private risk-sharing models. Additionally, predictive analytics in underwriting and portfolio risk optimization are emerging trends. There is a noticeable shift towards climate risk modeling, data-driven risk transfer structures, and multi-peril coverage solutions.
Agricultural productivity is a key driver for this growth. For instance, the USDA reported a rise in U.S. agricultural exports to approximately $176 billion in 2024. Crop reinsurance supports this by offering financial risk buffers against crop losses, thereby enhancing farming sector stability.
Companies are increasingly turning to innovative solutions like AI-driven data analytics to gain competitive advantages. For example, in March 2023, Ceres Imaging launched the Risk Solutions suite, offering AI-driven analytics for global agricultural lenders, insurers, and reinsurers. This product suite is designed to improve underwriting, enhance claims responsiveness, and provide detailed risk exposure visualization, featuring automated measurements and localized data for payout forecasting.
In strategic corporate moves, American Financial Group acquired Crop Risk Services for $240 million in July 2023, aiming to enhance its crop insurance infrastructure. This acquisition is expected to boost AFG’s customer service offering and market presence.
