 Sus-Risk

ABSTRACT

The general objective is to improve knowledge on Risk Management through a holistic approach capable of investigating all the relevant aspects that influence risk management choices using. This is done by applying cutting-edge methodologies for risk quantification and qualification.

The main activities are:

• Risk qualification and quantification.
• Behavioural factors influencing farmers’ adoption of risk management strategies.
• Analysis of risk management choices by looking at traditional and more innovative risk management tools.
• Feasibility studies and design of innovative risk management tools envisaged by the new CAP and indexed and catastrophe insurance.
• Evaluation of the implications of new policies, risk management tools and scenarios for reducing the use of chemical inputs on the choices and economic performance of agricultural companies.

The expected impacts are the following:

Scientific. New contributions to the scientific literature on risk management in agriculture and training of young researchers on the topic.

Technological. Development of knowledge (data, information, methodologies) to improve existing risk management tools and strategies and implement new solutions suited to farmers’ needs.

Socio-economic. Developing solutions to increase the sustainability of agriculture through greater resilience of farms to address the global challenges they face

The Project involves broad involvement of operators and public and private institutions operating in the field to ensure the development of results applicable in practice.
