中文题目:加纳农业供应链风险与规避策略及其对供应链绩效的影响,
内容简介:以加纳农业供应链的风险源与风险危害程度为研究视角,通过对加纳农业供应链中潜在的供给风险进行了调查和评估,并根据工程评定以及历史记录,估算出这些风险缓急程度和参与者面对既定风险的应对能力及其对加纳农业供应链实际绩效的影响,提出了如何降低和转移加纳农业供应链风险的应对策略。本书基于18个研究假设,通过对加纳农业企业和农场的实地采访和面谈来收集二手数据的方法开展研究。本研究对1504名长期在农业行业或农业供应链行业工作的管理人员进行了问卷调查,对回收的有效问卷回收689份进行统计与分析来验证研究假设,得出以下结论:通过合理分配稀有资源可以缓解供应链中的需求、供应、气候、物流以及基础设施相关的风险,从而改善加纳农业供应链的绩效。
本书价值:
农业在加纳经济结构中占据了重要地位,加纳国内生产总值的38%来自农业,与农业相关的产业创造了国内40%就业机会。鉴于其重要性,本书选取加纳农业供应链的风险源与风险危害程度为研究视角,运用实证研究方法,研究视角新颖。研究发现尽管有些风险在供应链中是无可避免的,如市场风险,但并非所有全球供应链相关风险都会在加纳农业供应链中得以体现,例如其他包括政治风险,气候因素引发的风险等,都不会或是很少单独发生在加纳农业供应链中。其次,当加纳面对财政风险束手无策时,基于采用规避、管控、协调和适应四步走的策略,通过供应链的管理及运作上会比较有效降低对加纳农业生产的危害,因为农业供应链的参与者或企业各自具备不同的技巧和能力,因此研究具有实际应用价值。
Agricultural supply chain stakeholders operate in a complex chain and unstable environment. Recent years have witnessed the growing research interest in agricultural supply chain risks issues and agricultural supply chain performance. The book identifies the possible supply chain related risks in Ghana’s agricultural supply chain. Based on engineering judgments and historical records, the severity of risks and the ability of participants to manage them are assessed, the impact of the different categories of major supply chain risks is investigated in Ghana’s agricultural supply chain performance. The book also reveals that all global supply chain related risks indeed exist in agricultural supply chain of Ghana.
While risks such as market related risks are inevitable, participants in Ghana’s agricultural supply chain still have abilities to minimize them in the chain. Participants could also effectively reduce managerial and operational risks in the chain, in spite of the weak ability to avoid financial risks.
