Colombia's Resolution No. 000096 of 2025: Guidelines for Implementing Annual Agricultural Risk Management Plans (PAGRA)

Colombia's Resolution No. 000096 of 2025, issued by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, establishes guidelines for implementing Annual Agricultural Risk Management Plans (PAGRA), aimed at strengthening the integrated management of risks affecting the agricultural sector. The regulation coordinates instruments for risk knowledge, reduction and management and incorporates financial protection mechanisms for agricultural producers. These include the Agricultural Insurance Incentive (ISA), capitalization mechanisms for agricultural risk management, agricultural recovery programmes, special credit lines and other financial instruments established under PAGRA. It also provides for the dissemination of these instruments and their technical and financial monitoring. The resolution seeks to reduce producers' economic vulnerability to events affecting agricultural activities, facilitate the recovery of productive capacity and expand access to financial risk-management instruments. The stated results are public-policy objectives rather than verified implementation impacts.
