Abstract: This paper considers exotic price coverage in crop insurance. The issue is similar to the pricing of options on extrema which are commonly called exotic options. Consideration is made of individual monthly average prices leading to a multivariate distribution with important dependencies. Additionally, the problem is approached in terms of the joint distribution of a maximum over an interval and the harvest time price.
