Abstract

Agricultural insurance is a prerequisite for the existence of agriculture, especially for agricultural countries. The present time poses serious climatic, economic, and biological challenges to agricultural production. Insurance should become a tool that will help to balance the risks between all participants in agricultural insurance relations. Insurance should reduce the negative impact on agricultural production and living standards in the country.

In the article on the basis of analysis of normative-legal acts, regulating the procedure of agricultural animals insurance the problematic issues are investigated and the ways of elimination of collisions in legal regulation of this type of insurance are offered. The problems of determining the list of animals subject to compulsory insurance are investigated and solutions are proposed. The question of legal expansion of the range of insurance risks for insurance contracts of animals in the framework of the Law of Ukraine «On peculiarities of insurance of agricultural products with state support» is analyzed. The proposed additions to the regulatory and legal acts in the field of insurance of breeding animals will lead to the harmonization of relevant legislation, as well as improve awareness of breeding animals for regulatory authorities, consumers of relevant products and insurers.
