چکیده
The objective of the paper is to propose a risk assessment model for agricultural engineering related to biosafety and security while deploying agriculture information through the latest computing and communication technologies for farmers. The earlier works concentrate much on the biological risk and agricultural risk without focusing on the effects of uncertainty in different computing and communication technologies on agriculture. The agricultural risk is considered as a net effect of uncertainties in processes performed during a particular phase or season by a subject on the objects through particular method. A mathematical model for assessing the overall agricultural risk arising from the various uncertainties in processes of extending the latest technologies to agriculture business is proposed. The main focus of the paper is to analyze and mitigate agricultural risks towards healthy crops, nutrient soils for adequate food production in the market with a better environment to the society.

Development of a Generic Risk Matrix to Manage Project Risks
A generic risk matrix is presented for use identifying and assessing project risks quickly and cost effectively. It assists project managers with few resources to perform project risk analysis. The generic risk matrix (GRM) contains a broad set of risks that are categorized and ranked according to their potential impact and probability of occurrence. The matrix assists PMs in quickly identifyin...
متن کاملDetermination of the Suitable Location of Soil Moisture Sampling in Drip-Tape Irrigation Management in A Maize Field
Location of soil moisture sampling in irrigation management is of special importance due to the spatial variability of soil hydraulic characteristics and the development of root system. The objective of this study was determination of the suitable location for soil moisture sampling in drip-tape irrigation management, which is representative of the average moisture in the soil profile (θavg) as...
متن کاملRethinking the Risk Management Process for Genetically Engineered Crop Varieties in Small-scale, Traditionally Based Agriculture
Proponents of genetically engineered (GE) crops often assume that the risk management used in the industrial world is appropriate for small-scale, traditionally based agriculture in the Third World. Opponents of GE crops often assume that risk management is inappropriate for the Third World, because it is inherently biased in favor of the industrial world. We examine both of these assumptions, ...

متن کاملRisk management in urban tunnels using methods of game theory and multi-criteria decision-making
In general, underground spaces are associated with high risks because of their high uncertainty in geotechnical environments. Since most accidents and incidents in these structures are often associated with uncertainty, the development of risk analysis and management methods and prevention of accidents are essential. A deeper recognition of the factors affecting the implementation process can p...
