Weather risk management by Saskatchewan agriculture producers
Agricultural Finance Review, 2013PurposeThe purpose of this research is to study the weather risk management practices of agriculture producers. In particular, the authors look at the extent to which farmers use weather derivatives to complement insurance. Unlike insurance, weather derivatives mitigate risk associated with low intensity, high probability events and therefore offer the

Weather derivatives for managing weather and climate risk in agriculture
International Journal of Financial Engineering, 2020In this paper, we develop a pricing model for weather derivatives at a single location and multiple locations. In the first model, a Lévy regime-switching temperature model for a single location is used to price futures written on cumulative average temperature and growing degree-days indices at a single location.

Spatial Aggregation and Weather Risk Management
2007Previous studies identify limited potential efficacy of weather derivatives in hedging agricultural exposures. In contrast to earlier studies which investigate the problem at low levels of aggregation, we find using straight forward temperature contracts that better weather hedging opportunities exist at higher levels of spatial aggregation ...

Weather Index-Based Insurance in Agricultural Risk Management
2022The increase in the frequency and severity of extreme weather events associated with climate changes has relevant impacts for farmers. Weather parametric insurance schemes are a possible option in managing agricultural risks because they refer to objective and immediate data to assess the payouts (as e.g.

Industrial Risk Management with Weather Derivatives
2001These notes address the role of weather derivatives in managing volumetric exposure induced by variation in the weather. My objective is to demonstrate that weather risk management problems are meaningful, in that the risk faced by the afflicted parties is compelling, and also to demonstrate that weather derivatives are an effective means of dealing ...
