Abstract: El presente trabajo desarrolla un modelo teórico de crédito, seguro y extensión agrícola para mostrar que la provisión conjunta de estos tres servicios puede ser un mecanismo factible para destrabar la inversión en proyectos rentables pero riesgosos en la agricultura de pequeña escala, la cuales predominante en economías en desarrollo. El modelo explota complementariedades naturales entre estos tres servicios. El seguro facilita la oferta de crédito y puede reducir el interés exigido y por otro lado elimina el riesgo adicional que implica invertir en extensión agrícola. El crédito es necesario para financiar la inversión y el pago de la extensión agrícola y el seguro, ya que los bajos niveles de ingreso del productor de pequeña escala hacen que el autofinanciamiento sea prohibitivamente caro. La extensión agrícola eleva la rentabilidad de la inversión con lo cual las entidades financieras están más dispuestas a asignar fondos. Además, el modelo incorpora el potencial ahorro en costos de proveer conjuntamente los tres servicios, ya que ellos dependen de un insumo común. Ese insumo común es información sobre quiénes son, qué hacen y qué poseen los productores de pequeña escala.
This work develops a theoretical model of credit, insurance and agricultural extension services to show that the their joint provision can be a feasible mechanism to unlock investment in profitable but risky projects among small-scale agricultural producers, which are predominant in developing economies. The model exploits natural complementarities between these three services. Insurance facilitates the supply of credit and can reduce the interest required; and on the other hand eliminates the additional risk involved in investing in agricultural extension services. Credit is necessary to finance investment and to pay for agricultural extension and insurance, since the low income levels of the small-scale producer make self-financing prohibitively expensive. Agricultural extension increases the profitability of investment, making financial entities more willing to allocate funds. Additionally, the model incorporates the potential cost savings of jointly providing these three services, since they depend on a common input. That common input is information about who small-scale producers are, what they do,and what they own.
