Abstract	This paper examines the economics and pricing of weather derivatives in Ontario and argues that weather derivatives and weather insurance can be used as a form of agricultural insurance. Using historical data, the relationship between crop productivity and weather is examined. Then a variety of put and call options for rain- and heat-based weather risk are discussed and numerically evaluated. The evaluation examines in detail the pricing of insurance contracts at a given location and across space.
