Supply Chain Resilience Strategies in the Face of Climate Shocks within the Agricultural Sector in Angola,

This study examines how climate shocks affect supply chains in Angola's agricultural sector, focusing on strategies to enhance resilience. Qualitative interviews were conducted with farmers, agribusinesses, and government officials to gather insights on current resilience strategies and challenges faced during climate shocks in Angola's agricultural sector. Farmers reported significant losses of up to 30% in crop yields due to unpredictable weather patterns, highlighting the critical need for improved irrigation systems and drought-resistant seed varieties. Current resilience strategies are insufficient; a comprehensive approach integrating technological advancements, insurance schemes, and farmer training programmes is recommended. Implementing an integrated climate risk management framework, including insurance products tailored to agricultural sectors, will enhance Angola's agricultural sector's ability to withstand future shocks.
