A new theoretical framework for agricultural risks reduction actions efficiency and impact

In Sub-Saharan Africa, agricultural policies increasingly integrate agricultural risks reduction. Such actions, whose overall objective is to build an agriculture on which agricultural risks only have residual impacts, will require methodological tools, knowledge bodies and decision support tools that significantly improve agricultural risk reduction strategies relevance, efficiency and impact. They should significantly mitigate agricultural risks direct and indirect impacts which include agricultural production, income, financing and access to infrastructure fluctuations and intensification of agricultural development structural challenges.This article proposes the Badolo AgriRiskProspect theoretical framework for agricultural risks reduction actions. It is a multirisk and multidimensional theoretical tool for developing knowledge bodies and decision support tools for the formulation of integrated and efficient agricultural risks reduction plans. Such plans consider the main agricultural risks and agriculture production, income, financing, infrastructure and governance dimensions. They implement a results-based approach to agricultural risk reduction to build agricultural risk-protected configurations. Specifically, the Badolo AgriRiskProspect theoretical framework is founded by the concepts of indirect impacts, residual impacts and vulnerability, resilience trajectories segments, information classes for resilience and resilience configurations
