This report is comprised of two volumes:
(i) volume one: risk assessment; and (ii) volume two: risk
management strategy. Volume one continues with chapter one,
which characterizes the recent performance of the
agriculture sector, including agro-climatic and market
conditions. It also identifies the productive systems used
for this analysis. Chapter two describes the main risks in
the agricultural sector, capturing market, production, and
enabling environment risks along the value chains involved
in the selected productive system typologies. Chapter three
presents the estimations of the aggregate impacts of
unmanaged agricultural risk on agricultural losses and
production volatility. Chapter four identifies risk profiles
for different stakeholders, underlying the different types
of risk impacts, and then highlights a vulnerability
framework. Finally, chapter five presents a prioritization
of risks and proposes a preliminary set of priority risk
management measures. A short list of potential solution
actions is offered as the starting point for a more in-depth
solution analysis to be undertaken during the second phase
of the risk assessment. Volume two is composed of four
chapters. Chapter one provides a brief discussion on the
agricultural risk profile and risk management options
(solutions) in Paraiba and an inventory of current programs,
projects and policies that in different ways address the
main agricultural risks. Chapter two presents an overview of
the key agricultural sector features as are relevant for
understanding the ARM strategy. Chapter three presents the
ARM strategy with respect to the intervention areas
identified during the first phase, i.e. weather information
system, Sanitary and Phytosanitary System (SPS), supply
chain coordination, and Agroclimatic Information Systems,
including concrete risk management actions. Chapter four
incorporates detailed information on the proposed actions
aggregated in strategic lines. It includes information about
the estimated cost of the actions, the responsible
institution and the timeframe. Moreover, a second table
provides a short term calendar by institution.
