The present study on farmers perception towards crop insurance as a risk management tool was conducted in the year 2017-18 in the Amravati district. For the study 80 respondents were purposively selected from two tehsils of district with the help of random sampling method. Frequencies, mean, standard deviation, correlation of co-efficient analysis were employed for interpreting the results. The study revealed that age, farming experience and awareness are positively and significantly correlated with perception at 0.01 level of probability. And education, extension contact and source of information are positively and significantly correlated with perception at 0.05 level of probability and annual income and land holding are negatively non-significant with perception.
