Agricultural insurance is a supporting tool for financial resources of agricultural producers and investors. It is an effective tool for risk management in agriculture and its adoption by farmers as a new technology is dependent on many factors. In this study, the satisfaction of farmers who avail Weather based Crop Insurance in Iran were investigated. The study collected data through a structured questionnaire where 382 farmers were chosen as respondents who availed weather based crop insurance. The hypothesis was tested using one sample test which proved that awareness about weather based crop insurance has an influence on customer satisfaction. The study found that farmers were motivated to avail insurance as it provided adequate protection against risk. Also, they mentioned that the premium paid by them was high. Due to adverse weather incidences in Iran, weather based crop insurance is expected to provide adequate protection to the insured wheat cultivators in events of loss in crop yields.
