Production risk refers to the risks encountered in the production process, such as weather drought, epidemic diseases and insect pests, ice and snow disasters and other natural disasters, which will affect the yield and quality of citrus and make citrus farmers suffer economic losses. Production risks are mainly caused by natural causes. To resist this risk, in addition to promoting the use of various effective scientific and technological means to offset its impact, another effective way is to participate in agricultural insurance. After participating in agricultural insurance, orange farmers can get much higher compensation than financial premium subsidies once they encounter disaster risks, and the level of protection will be significantly improved.
Market risk is a sudden change in market demand, which is not conducive to the expected sales target. The direct consequence is that the traded goods are unsalable and the market price drops sharply, thus causing losses to the trading parties. For example, on June 5438+ 10, 2008, the citrus fruit fly incident caused the slow sales of citrus in a short time and the price dropped. This risk is caused by the change of market objects. There are many reasons for market risk. In response to this risk, orange farmers need to constantly enhance market awareness, take the road of agricultural industrialization, and strive to overcome the contradiction between small production and large market. For example, developing citrus professional cooperative organizations (corporate), strengthening the market negotiation ability of citrus farmers, and establishing industrialized business models such as "company+corporate professional cooperative+base+farmers" and "corporate professional cooperative+base+farmers" are all effective ways to deal with market risks.
