The effect of risk on supply chain performance and operator performance: The case study of rice supply chains

Abstract

Supply chain risks hinder the cooperation among members, negatively affecting the supply chain and enterprises’ performance. This study applies structural equation modeling (SEM) to demonstrate the relationship between risk, supply chain performance, and business performance in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. Research data were collected from 142 rice enterprises. The result demonstrates that risks occurring in the supply chain negatively influenced the performance of the rice supply chain and the performance of rice enterprises. Besides, the study shows that rice supply chain performance positively impacts on rice business performance in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam.

Key Fitting Points of Agri-food Supply Chain Collaboration and Blockchain: Literature Review on Agri-food Supply Chain Collaboration with the Integration of Blockchain Technology

“…Likewise, little research has been conducted on the important aspects of BCT for fresh Agri-food such as rice in the Chinese context [85]. Furthermore, there is a negligible amount of research on the problems faced by different parties in rice SCC [86], especially technical safety and security problems [87] for farmers, Agri-food processors, marketing enterprises, and consumers. In this context, research work is carried out to explore the model of Agri-food SCC with the integration of BCT, as well as the technical safety and security problems of different partis in each link of SC, and to derive specific solutions [88].…”
