- A devastating freeze in Mexico changed the course of Juan Carlos Cortés García’s life. He saw coffee plantations wiped out—and how quickly a farmer could lose everything. In 1993, he founded PROAGRO Seguros, Mexico’s first new agricultural insurer in more than three decades. Today, he helps farmers and agribusinesses protect themselves against droughts, freezes, hurricanes and other climate shocks—so one bad season doesn’t mean starting over.

Together with Rose Goslinga, he co-founded Pula to help smallholder farmers manage climate risks through agricultural insurance. The company uses satellite imagery, weather data, and farmer registries to understand where farmers are and what support they need. This helps farmers recover after a bad season, invest with greater confidence, and build stronger livelihoods.
