Research on Revenue Insurance Premium Ratemaking of Jujube Based on Copula-Stochastic Optimization Model by Li-Mei Qi, Ruo-Yu Yao, Xing-Zhe Zhang, Yu-Jing Zhang, Xiao-Yin Wang, Jian-Ping Tao, Jia-Ming Zhu

“…Thirdly, the optimal Copula function which connects the marginal distribution functions and its joint distribution function was selected with the principle of “the minimum square distance from the empirical Copula function.” Finally, taking the premium rate and the insurance amount as two decision variables, the farmer’s risk minimization as the objective function, around the four constraints of functions and role of insurance, the nonspeculative nature of insurance, the sustainability of insurance, and the moral hazard factors and the farmers’ willing to participate in insurance, the Copula-stochastic optimization model was set up to determine the premium rate of jujube revenue insurance in Aksu region.…”
