Abstract

<p>Geographical indication (GI) rice is unique product from a specific region. Our objective is to study the risk management in the GI rice supply chain of a community enterprise called “Ban Khao Klang”, which produces Sang Yod Muang Phatthalung. From the literature review and in-depth interview of the president of the group, the risk identification, risk measurement, assessment and evaluation for farmers and the enterprise are performed. Then, the priority list of risk management is descending sorted according to the index of severity, probability and cost. The result indicates that the first priority risk for farmer is flood, being in debt, high input cost and inadequate knowledge for organic farming and high production cost for an enterprise. In addition, the group needs support from government in term of subsidy in water pond. Finally, we suggest the improvement of productivity by using proper techniques. Furthermore, the enhancement of community enterprise could be implemented in human skill, teamwork and network. <br /><strong>Keywords</strong>: Community enterprise; geographical indication rice; risk management <br /><br /></p>
