    In field of agriculture, especially in developing countries, the basic problem is the low productivity associated with high instability. The population growth in these countries has been exclusive laying greater stress on food supply with the consequent malnutrition, poor health, low productivity, chronic poverty and ultimately narrow outlook toward the development. During the past, the development efforts made by these countries have been mostly washed away by the population flood. This created the anxiety and the awareness to balance the equation between flood supply and population growth. 1. To analyze the progress and coverage of the NAIS in Madhya Pradesh. 2. To examine the impact of NAIS in risk minimization. 3. To examine the claim settlement procedures and time taken in claim settlement. 4. To assess farmer expectation and identify problems faced by them related to NAIS. The study is confined to whole of Madhya Pradesh, the objective function of the study was to evaluate the coverage and performance of the NAIS, its impact on production level and stabilization of farm income and identification of problems faced by farmers hindering popularity and implementing of the scheme. The relevant macro level parameters viz. number of farmers benefited, area covered, sum-insured, premium and claim compensated etc. were based on the secondary data available in annual progress report of the implementing agency covered a period from 2000 to 2011. For micro level study of NAIS impact, the cross-section data were generated from the selected respondents by personal interview using survey method keeping in view the resource and time at the disposal of the investigator, the sample size pre determined (75 beneficiary and 75 non beneficiary farmers). The sampling design used was a simple random sampling. The data were analysed in the light of the objectives using suitable classification, tabulation, absolute and relative change, average and percentage. The findings of the study lead to following conclusions. NAIS provide good opportunities for farmers to deal with risk in agriculture. For the farmers willing to bear any risk to earn higher expected profits, insurance is viable option as it happens in case of soybean crop on sample holdings. There seems to be an increasing acceptance of this scheme in recent years, due to consecutive failure of monsoon. Seasonal crop weather watch survey on regular basis need to be conduct for proper implementation of the NAIS in the Madhya Pradesh. Until risk tools are better tailored to the need of Indian farmers and until/product become well informed about managing income risk, the Madhya Pradesh will face unnecessarily high level of financial stress in payment of the claims. The present scheme required an increase in premium and a reduction in the range of risks covered it is suggested to prepared block wise commercial crop statistics for the state from collecting the data from patwari records of revenue circle because such crops can be include under the purview of the scheme with higher premium rates. The defined unit area for paying indemnity should be a village or group of village as against tehsil / block, is being considered at present. Due to lack of knowledge about filling of the form in proper manner the incomplete or improper filled application forms by the implementing agencies. Thus, the staff of the implementing financing agencies should be given training by AIC for filling or declaration forms etc. Timely settlement of the claims of the farmers may results that others farmers may join the scheme in the next crop season.
