Sub-goals:
- A better understanding of risk exposure and risk management strategies in agriculture and aquaculture through quantitative and qualitative analysis and comparison of risk of agricultural versus aquaculture producers.
- Explore and develop methods for risk management adapted distinctive characteristics and regulation regimes in agriculture and aquaculture, respectively. This objective includes both within-firm risk management as well as exploiting more fully the markets for risk such as insurance and commodity derivative markets.
