Actions relating to harvest insurance as referred to in point (h) of the first subparagraph of Article 33(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 shall contribute to safeguarding producers' incomes and to covering market losses incurred by the producer organisation or its members where they are affected by natural disasters, climatic events and, where applicable, diseases or pest infestations.

losses referred to in point (a) and against other losses caused by adverse climatic events; and
