Will a Burial insurance policy cover a green burial?

However, will my burial insurance plan allow me to have a untraditional, green burial, or deficiency there of?
My policy is lower than this company;

From my kindly, Burial insurance doesn't have to cover the cost of the burial, it's just designed that way. When you outdo away, the money paid out of the vivacity insurance policy goes to your beneficiary who later (hopefully) distributes that money as to your wishes. The Life Insurance Company would not simply cut checks directly to those that provide funeral service.
If you want to be absolutely indubitable, call your agent. But this is how the burial policies that I own sold are designed.
Burial insurance pays money to whoever you say. They can spend it any opening they want - they don't even have to bury you near it.
