Meet RoyceRoyce is a 23 year old farmer who lives in Chibanga (a small rural village in Zambia). As a mother of three, and with another currently on the way, Royce worries about providing food for her family.
Zua’s microinsurance offering would help people like Royce by covering the cost of maize, fertilizer and pesticides in cases of crop failures. This allows farmers to purchase the inputs they need for the following year, thus preventing one bad harvest from perpetuating into the next.
