During the two recent growing seasons, rice farmers have seen their fields destroyed by rainwater floods and diseases on an area of 53.5 hectares. On Wednesday 24, the Radiant Insurance Company disbursed 12.6 million Frw to compensate

Rice farmers compensated by Radiant Insurance Company farm rice in the KEHEMU Cooperative in the Bugarama Swamp, Rusizi District. Unfortunately, the waters of the Cyagara and Runguga creeks overflowed and the rice fields were submerged and turned into mud and swamps. The latter had paid their agricultural insurance to Radiant Company, which agreed to compensate for the destruction of Mars and May last year. These rice farmers in Bugarama paid 20 million Frw. But Radiant Co compensated them for Frw 273 million
