In the second part of the event, the nearly 50 attendees were able to take part in a workshop, the topic of which was the possibility of coordinating the damage reporting and inspection process of the greyhound damage mitigation system and market insurers. During the active professional discourse, it was possible to take into account the advantages and hindering factors resulting from the unification of the processes of the two systems with completely different approaches, as well as the tasks to be solved in the future. The importance of the professional meeting was that, in addition to the professional exchange of ideas, it provided a starting point for the representatives of the organizations responsible for the operation of the agricultural risk management system and those participating in it, to determine the directions for further development.
