出处： Agricultural Supply Chain in Ghana: Risks, Mitigation Strategies and Performance

简   介：The agricultural supply chain in Ghana is inevitably of risk. With the exception of weather related risks （extreme cold，hail storms，strong winds，flooding，earthquake，vocanoes） which are geographically influenced and politically related risks （political instability，war，civil unrest or other socio-political crises，interruption of trade due to disputes with other countries and nationalization/confiscation of assets，especially for foreign investors） all other risk issues in supply chain field raised in this book affect agricultural supply chain in Ghana. However，risks affecting the agricultural supply chain differ in terms of probability and severity. We can infer from this book that most agricultural risks identified have low or no severity. For instance while biological and environmental risks such as contamination related to poor sanitation and human contamination and illnesses are probable in the Ghana agricultural supply chain but its severity in the chain is negligible. While some risk sources could be managed/controlled，others have no managerial abilities. For instance the participants in the chain have no abilities to manage/control financial related risks such as inadequate financial support. However the participants in chain weakly manage/control financial related risks such as delays in accessing financial support，uncertain financial support （credit），period change/uncertain interest and exchange rate policies.

出处： Agricultural Supply Chain in Ghana: Risks, Mitigation Strategies and Performance

简   介：Since risks issues are inevitable in the agricultural supply chain，it’s worthwhile to identify risks and their impact on the supply chain performance. In addition，since risks are identified to be mitigated，identifying mitigations strategies and their impact on supply chain performance are also of great importance. From the results，there is an indication that not all weather related risks influencing general supply affect agricultural supply chain in Ghana. The geographical position of the country explains the probability and severity of periodic deficit/excess of rainfall risks of the agricultural supply chain in the area. Agriculture in Ghana is prone to a range of climatic hazards including most notably drought and excess rain/flood. It will be prudent for managers，decision-makers and investors in particular to consider weather issues such as periodic deficit/excess of rainfall and flooding when operating in the agricultural supply chain in Ghana.

出处： Agricultural Supply Chain in Ghana: Risks, Mitigation Strategies and Performance

简   介：The results on weather/natural disaster risk identification indicate that agricultural supply chain in Ghana is lowly influenced by extreme cold，hail storms，strong wings earthquake and vocanoes which influence supply chain in other parts of the globe （Table 4-1）. The disturbed weather/natural disaster risks in the agricultural supply chain are floodings，extreme drought，a periodic deficit of rainfall and periodic excess rainfall （Table 4-1）. Flooding and extreme drought as a source of agricultural supply chain risk in Ghana seldom occur and mostly their severity is high and could affect the chain’s operations very highly. Based on the weather/natural disaster risk management/control abilities results，participants in the agricultural supply chain in Ghana have generally weak control abilities on risk emerging from periodic deficit rainfall and periodic excess rainfall with no ability to manage/control risk caused by extreme drought，extreme cold and flooding respectively. Even though hail storms and strong winds lowly affect the chain’s performance，participants have no ability to control such risks （Table 4-1）.

出处： Agricultural Supply Chain in Ghana: Risks, Mitigation Strategies and Performance

简   介：Ghana is a typical agricultural country，hence this book combines cases of participants in the major agricultural industries to unearth the reality of risks affecting agricultural supply chain，their impact on chains performance as well as risk mitigation strategies and their impact on the agriculture supply chain. Agriculture is among the major significant contributors to the total gross domestic product in Ghana’s economy and more than 50% of its population are employed. Ghanaian agricultural supply chain is characterized by three major flows （physical，financial and informational flows）. The complex agriculture supply chain network is made up of participants such as input suppliers，farmers/raw material producers，intermediaries/wholesalers/retailers and processors. In addition the network consists of exporters and importers to link the national market to the global market. The entire network is supported by logistical，financial and technical services. External forces such as institutional policies and regulations also play a role in the Ghanaian agricultural supply chain.
