The Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies invites submissions for a Special Issue on “Climate Risk, Biodiversity, Geopolitical Risk and Resilient Agri-Food Systems: Comparative Perspectives on Finance, Innovation, and Policy.”

The Special Issue seeks to advance interdisciplinary research on how climate change, biodiversity loss, and geopolitical disruptions are reshaping agri-food systems across countries and regions. Agriculture and food supply chains are increasingly exposed to environmental degradation, resource scarcity, energy shocks, and transition pressures, making resilience and adaptation critical priorities for policymakers, businesses, and financial systems.

The issue particularly focuses on the role of finance, technological innovation, and public policy in strengthening agri-food resilience, supporting sustainable transitions, and addressing interconnected environmental and economic challenges.

𝗧𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁

Submissions may address, but are not limited to:

• Climate risk and agricultural productivity
• Biodiversity loss and agri-food system resilience
• Food security under climate and ecological pressures
• Green and sustainable finance for agri-food transitions
• Agricultural finance, insurance, and risk management
• Climate adaptation investments and rural financial inclusion
• Firm behaviour and investment under climate and biodiversity risks
• Technological innovation, digitalisation, and climate-smart agriculture
• Biodiversity-related financial risks and valuation mechanisms
• Resilience of agri-food supply chains and food systems
• Policy design for adaptation, sustainability, and food-system resilience
• Comparative evidence on climate, biodiversity, and agri-food transitions across countries and regions
• Renewable energy adoption and energy resilience in agri-food systems
• Environmental externalities, land use, and rural development dynamics
• Geopolitical risks, energy shocks, and agri-food price volatility
• Fertilizer markets, input cost disruptions, and agricultural production challenges

𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗜𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀

The Special Issue aims to bridge research on climate finance, biodiversity, agricultural economics, business, and public policy to generate insights into resilient and sustainable agri-food systems. It particularly encourages comparative perspectives across emerging, developing, and advanced economies and welcomes theoretical, empirical, and policy-oriented contributions that address global sustainability challenges and long-term economic resilience.
