内容简介：Whether the agricultural insurance promotesthe production of the primary industry has been debated for decades of years.Our paper studies this question based on the premium subsidy policy ofagricultural insurance in China. We use this quasi-experiment to conduct difference-in-differences and event study estimations. We find that the development of agricultural insurance induced by the premium subsidy significantly promotes the production of primary industry. The primary industry production per person rises by 1430 RMB in the subsidized provinces compared toother provinces. We use county-level data to address the aggregation problem in our province-level analysis and get the same conclusion. We also find that the agricultural insurance primarily affects agriculture and husbandry among four sub-industries in the primary industry.
