On March 11, 2011 the strongest ever recorded in Japan earthquake occurred, which triggered a powerful tsunami and caused a nuclear accident. Book presents a comprehensive assessment of multiple impacts of that triple disaster on Japanese agriculture and food sector. It identifies and assesses specific and overall impacts in divers stages and components of agri-food chains, and temporal and spacial scales. It summarises responses of individuals, households, farms, businesses, communities, consumers, stakeholders, and authorities as well as assesses progress and challenges in post-disaster recovery and reconstruction. It withdraws lessons from the Japanese experiences and suggests recommendations for effective risk management in Japan and around the globe. Study is based on a wide range of information from various organisations and original assessments of leading experts, stakeholders, and affected agents. Findings are presented in a popular way in order to reach a larger audience of researchers, educators, students, experts, farmers, businessmen, administrators, policy makers, professionals, non-governmental and international organisations, consumers, victims, and public at large.
