      abstract = {Stranded assets are those that have suffered unanticipated  or premature write downs and lose value or turn into  liabilities due to external shocks. Environmental risk  factors such as natural disasters, climate change, water  scarcity etc. that could cause asset stranding of  agriculture are poorly understood in the context of food  value chain (FVC). The value at risk (VaR) globally is  significant in agriculture due to over-exposure to stranded  assets throughout our financial and economic systems. Our  objective is to discuss the issue of stranded assets and  the environmental risks involved with food value chains.  This paper provides an overview of the environmental risk  disasters and climate change as agriculture asset stranding  in FVC. We present the impact of disasters triggered by  natural hazards on the economic losses of the agricultural  value chain and loss of value added growth with further  discussion on the principles of effective disaster risk  reduction in FVC. Disaster when combined with climate  change poses challenges by creating fluctuations in yields,  supply shortfalls, subsequent global trading patterns, and  substantial effects on FVC. Finally, we present strategies  for building resilient FVCs in partnership with  communities.},
