Resumo: | This paper examines the potential for adverse selection when farmers are offered a portfolio of insurance policies.  We analyze the risk characteristics farmers who bought alternative insurance instruments in 1996-97.  Inability to differentiate farmers according to risk types results in pooling equilibrium which may implicitly subsidize high risk farmers.
