C. Environment

This sub-section shall provide and present the possible impacts of the environment to the commodity value chain and vice versa.

1. List and briefly discuss ALL existing environment risks and hazards that have potential impact on the commodity. This shall include the following but not limited to:

• Climate hazards that are the common natural events in the weather cycle (ie. flood, drought, typhoon, soil erosion, landslide, salt water intrusion,storm surge,etc)

• Geologic (i.e. earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis)

• Occurence of pests and diseases

• Peace and order situation / conflicts that have potential impact in the value chain

2. Utilize the results of CRVA, FishVool, Georisk, and other tools as reference in dicussing the environment factors cited above. Further assessment and analysis of these tools shall be discussed under the Multi-factor Risk Assesment of Section 3.

3. Utilize the National Color-Coded Agricultural Guide (NCCAG) Map to identify the agricultural areas that are naturally suitable to the commoity and overlays data on soil properties, elevation, slope, rainfall pattern, temperature and climate induced multi-hazards. Briefly discuss generated maps from the NCCAG.

4. Utilize tools integrated in the Planners' Portal. Discuss relevant information and data generated.

1. Dicuss all factors and practices in the commodity value chain that may have adverse effect on the environment (i.e. Waste disposal, land and water degradation)
