OBVLADOVANJE TVEGANJ V KMETIJSTVU

TANŠEK, SARA (author), Pevcin, Primož (mentor)

Povsod po svetu se kmetijstvo srečuje z raznimi tveganji, ki otežujejo pridelavo ter zmanjšujejo dohodek. Največji problem predstavljata podnebje in vremenski vplivi. Tako je namen diplomskega dela spoznanje tveganj kmetijstva, podrobneje vremena. Zanima me, kako se kmetje s tveganji soočajo, jih obvladujejo, se pred njimi zavarujejo. Največjo pozornost sem posvetila suši, ki v Sloveniji povzroči največ gospodarske škode. Razloge in izzive za pisanje sem našla v pomembnosti ter obsežnosti problematike, vremenski nepredvidljivosti, praktičnih opazovanjih posledic vremena ipd. Cilje sem dosegala z veliko raziskovanja. Uporabila sem opisno metodo ter metodo klasifikacije. Določena znanja sem pridobila s predavanj, pogovorov s sosednjimi kmetovalci, ki se srečujejo s problemi vremenskih vplivov. Ugotovila sem, da ljudje premalo časa posvetimo tveganjem na splošno, še posebej kmetovalci, ki pridelujejo hrano, osnovno dobrino za naš obstoj. Bolj se bo kmetijstvo industrializiralo, bolj bo dovzetno za tveganja. Zaradi spremenjenega podnebja bodo negativni učinki v kmetijstvu skrajšane rastne dobe, povečana intenziteta škodljivcev in bolezni ter ekstremni vremenski dogodki. Spoznanja, kako in s kakšnimi ukrepi najučinkoviteje omiliti škodo, ki jo kmetijstvu povzročajo sušna obdobja, predstavljajo končni cilj dela. Problematika je aktualna. Znanja so vsekakor uporabna in se ne tičejo le kmetovalcev, temveč so pomembna za vsakega posameznika, kot tudi celotno družbo. Tveganja bodo v prihodnje imela vedno večji pomen, prav tako so z gospodarskim razvojem vedno bolj kompleksna. S tem postaja njihovo obvladovanje bolj zahtevno. Zaradi proizvodnje hrane je kmetijstvo pomembnejša gospodarska dejavnost. Kmetijski pridelovalci s svojim delom ne zagotavljajo samo hrane, skrbijo tudi za podeželje, proizvajajo surovine za oblačila in zdravila. Obvladovanje tveganj v kmetijstvu ima velik pomen za družbo in okolje, saj si življenja brez hrane ne predstavljamo.

• Title: RISK MANAGEMENT IN AGRICULTURE

Abstract

All over the world, agriculture is confronted with various risks that aggravate the production and reduce the income. The climate and weather conditions are the biggest problem and, consequently, the purpose of my diploma thesis is dealing with farming risks and the weather in greater detail. I wonder how the farmers face such risks, how they master them and protect their business from them. I paid the greatest attention to drought that causes maximum economic loss in Slovenia. I found the reasons and the challenges for doing my diploma thesis in the importance and the extensiveness of the problems, the weather unpredictability, practical observations of the impacts of the weather etc. I have attained the objectives by a lot of research work using a descriptive method and the method of classification. I acquired some knowledge by attending courses of lectures and talking to the farmers faced with the problems of the weather impacts. I found out that people devote too little time to such risks in general, and, especially, the farmers who produce food, i.e. the basic commodity for our existence. The more the agriculture is industrialized the more it is susceptible to the risks. The negative impacts to agriculture due to climate changes will result in shortened growing seasons, increased intensity of pests and diseases, and extreme weather conditions. The cognition of the most effective measures how to mitigate the loss caused to agriculture by drought represents the ultimate objective of the diploma thesis. The problems are topical, the knowledge is certainly applicable, and the former do not concern only the farmers but they are important to every individual and the society as a whole. The risks will continue to have a growing importance, and they are becoming more and more complex by the economic development and, consequently, their management more and more exacting. The agriculture is a major business activity because of the food production. The farmers do not only provide food by their work. They also take care of the countryside. They produce raw materials for clothing and medicines. The risk management in the agriculture is of great importance for the society itself and for the environment since we cannot imagine life without food.
