Chapter 10 looks at some of the key drivers of disaster risk within the agribusiness sector. It explores the impacts that the sector’s vulnerability to hazards and a range of local and global pressures have on smallholders and household food security. Identifying new approaches to creating shared value along the agricultural value chain, the chapter focuses on sub-Saharan Africa and the specific vulnerabilities and opportunities of the sector in that region.
