Abstract:
Vegetables have distinctive properties that are easily damaged, so handling and delivery time will be the important factors in the whole supply chain. Identification and mitigation of the damage is very important to prevent damage to vegetables and maintain resale value. This study uses the Rapid Agricultural Supply Chain Risk Assessment (RapAgRisk) based on the risk management standard ISO 31000:2009 to conduct a risk analysis. The field research uses sample of the actors in the supply chain from the farm producer to the point of sale. The research was done by taking convenience sampling through in-depth interviews with the actors of the supply chain. The research location in fresh vegetable production centers in Magelang (Central Java Province), and Sleman (Yogyakarta Province). Research result showed risk factor of the weather, natural condition, biological and environmental, related markets, logistics (infrastructure), and operational management in the supply chain of fresh vegetables. At the level of farmers and collectors, each have four risks while at the merchant level, there are five important risks getting attention for follow up. Mitigation each of these factors lead to the reducing damage and it can be applied to maintain the quality of the vegetables and increase the selling price.
