Stock Mortality

Insurance covering the death of fish or shellfish due to insured perils such as diseases, oxygen depletion, or extreme weather. In aquaculture, this helps protect against the loss of livestock, which is a primary asset.

The period during which the insurance company will compensate the insured for the loss of income after a loss event. For aquaculture, this ensures continuity of business operations after a significant loss.
