美国的现代化农业高度发达,农民仅占全国总人口的1.8%。但美国是世界上输出农产品最多的国家,世界各国进口的粮食有一半来自美国。农业是美国对外贸易中顺差最大的部门之一,连续保持近40年外贸盈余的记录。美国农业的大力发展与政府推行的农业保险密不可分。据统计,在从1995年到2004年的十年中,美国农作物保险行业的赔付率平均为95%。
The modern agriculture in the United States is highly developed with only 1.8% of the total population of the country. However, the United States is the country with the largest output of agricultural products in the world. About half of the food imported from all over the world comes from the United States. Agriculture is one of the largest surpluses in U.S. foreign trade and has kept a record of nearly 40 years of foreign trade surpluses. The vigorous development of U.S. agriculture is inextricably linked with the government-sponsored agricultural insurance. According to statistics, in the decade from 1995 to 2004, the average compensation rate of the crop insurance industry in the United States was 95% on average.
