Purpose The food supply chain is exposed to severe environmental and social issues with serious economic consequences. The identification and assessment of risk involved in the food supply chain can help to overcome these challenges. In response, the purpose of this paper is to develop a risk assessment framework for a typical food supply chain. Design/methodology/approach An integrated methodology of grey analytical hierarchy process and grey technique for order preference by similarity to the ideal solution is proposed for developing a comprehensive risk index. The opinion of the experts is used to illustrate an application of the proposed methodology for the risk assessment of the food supply chain in India. Findings Valuable insights and recommendations are drawn from the results, which are helpful to the practitioners working at strategic and tactical levels in the food supply chain for minimising the supply chain disruptions. Research limitations/implications The risk quantification for the case organisation is primarily based on inputs collected from the experts working for Indian food supply chain, and so the generalisation of the results is limited to the context of developing countries. However, the generalisability of the proposed risk quantification methodology and key insights developed in the food supply chain will assist practitioners in policy making. Practical implications The risk priorities established by this research would enable an implementation of systematic risk mitigation strategies and deployment of necessary resources for leveraging the efficiency of food supply chain. Originality/value Specifically, this research has delivered a risk quantification framework and strengthened the inquiry of risk management for the food supply chain.

Composite Reliability

Risiko dan ketidakpastian selalu menjadi isu penting dalam pengelolaan rantai pasok. Khususnya dalam agri- food supply chain (AFSC), kompleksitas pengelolaan risiko dan ketidakpastian meningkat karena karakteristik produk hasil pertanian yang mudah rusak, serta sifat produksinya yang sebagian besar didasarkan pada faktor cuaca dan proses biologi yang tidak terduga. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan upaya pengelolaan risiko yang menyajikan penilaian terhadap faktor-faktor yang dapat melemahkan daya saing dan kinerja AFSC. Penelitian ini mengintegrasikan kerangka pengukuran kinerja AFSC dan konsep Rapid Agricultural Supply Chain Risk Assessment, dengan memperhatikan aspek-aspek berkelanjutan yang meliputi aspek ekonomi (profit), sosial (people), dan lingkungan (planet). Kerangka teoritis yang dihasilkan diuji menggunakan Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Kuesioner diberikan kepada 193 petani tanaman pangan yang tersebar di sentra- sentra pertanian Kabupaten Paser dan PPU. Berdasarkan analisis model konstruk (outer model), seluruh indikator memenuhi convergent validity, kecuali indikator PR12 yang berkaitan dengan risiko regulasi hukum dan birokrasi. Oleh karena itu, indikator ini dikeluarkan dari konstruk model penelitian. Setelah semua indikator tervalidasi, selanjutnya dilakukan uji reliabilitas dengan melihat nilai composite reliability dari blok indikator yang mengukur setiap konstruk. Seluruh konstruk memiliki nilai di atas 0.7, sehingga semuanya dapat dikatakan reliabel. Adapun berdasarkan analisis model struktural (inner model), dapat disimpulkan bahwa pengelolaan risiko berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kinerja AFSC dan perspektif berkelanjutan. Akan tetapi, variabel perspektif berkelanjutan tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kinerja AFSC.
