JBS Foods has been supporting the installation of tanks for collecting and storing rainwater and electric generators for its integrated partners, to ensure a regular supply of both water and power. A tank has the capacity to supply a farm with up to 45,000 chickens for approximately 3 months. However, these amounts vary in accordance with the number of animals in the farm and the capacity of the tank, which can vary from 500 to 1,000 cubic meters.

We assessed a large number of new countries for their suitability to grow poppies sustainably, taking into account the possibility of future climate change, and selected an alternative geographical region in the northern hemisphere with a natural source which can provide water to 120,000 hectares of good arable land.Our first crop was successfully harvested in June 2014. We also enlarged our storage facilities for poppy straw in 2014 in order to mitigate the risk of partial crop failure affecting production of APIs. We aim to keep excess stock in storage in future. We employ local weather/soil experts to monitor moisture levels in the soils during the growing season. We are incentivising our farmers with commercial contracts that encourage them to maintain yields and plan for adverse weather e.g. by using irrigation systems |

This has led to price volatility and limits in agricultural growth for the region. | Current-up to 1 year | Highly probable | Medium | Engagement with community; Engagement with public policy makers; Engagement with other stakeholders in the river basin; Engagement with suppliers | This response strategy is expected to cost less than $100,000 USD. This is a relatively low cost in the context of the Kellogg overall global annual operating budget. | By working with raisin suppliers to measure continuous improvement via the Kellogg Grower Survey and secure future supply, we can mitigate the operational risk and find opportunities to support best management practices on the field. Costs were estimated based on historic pricing and volumes. |

Among our supply chain, the proportion of Oceania (especially Australia) is so large as 43% of whole amount of water use. The quantity of water use concerning with dairy products from that area is relatively large. If the provision of raw materials from supply chain is restricted due to climate change, it is possible that it will affect our production. | 1-3 years | Probable | Low | Supplier diversification | We consider the financial cost of this strategy is extremely low, although it is difficult to estimate the accurate cost, as the strategy is delivered as a part of our procurement process. | - As for milk, which is major procurement item from Australia, our procurement division has already chosen alternative suppliers and we have a framework to take measures in case the risk became tangible. - The products using milk are limited and the proportion of its sales among our group's products is small. Even if the risk became tangible, we can deal with the risk concerning with product provision by changing the structure of products we produce and sell.- The cost to address the risk in line with the strategy is mostly salaries for employees at our procurement department, which is only a small part of the whole budget of Kirin Group. Also, the estimated risks are only applicable to the limited goods. Therefore, the financial cost of the strategy is extremely low. |

Among our supply chain, the proportion of the U.S. is 20% of whole amount of water use. Major procurement items from the U.S. are corns, and we consider the impact of climate change to the growth of corns will be heavy. If the provision of raw materials from supply chain is restricted due to climate change, it is possible that it will affect our production. | 1-3 years | Probable | Medium | Supplier diversification | We consider the financial cost of this strategy is extremely low, although it is difficult to estimate the accurate cost, as the strategy is delivered as a part of our procurement process. | - Corns are mainly used as raw material for liquid sugar. The provision of corns is internationally stable and the risk that we cannot procure corns is low.- On the other hand, the reason we mainly procure corns made in the U.S. is the cost advantage. If the procurement risk became tangible, it would leads to the actual cost increase. For such procurement risks, our procurement division considers the measures.- The cost to address the risk in line with the strategy is mostly salaries for employees at our procurement department, which is only a small part of the whole budget of Kirin Group. Also, the estimated risks are only applicable to the limited goods. Therefore, the financial cost of the strategy is extremely low. |

Description
CDP's water program motivates companies to disclose and reduce their environmental impacts by using the power of investors and customers. The data CDP collects help influential decision makers to reduce risk, capitalize on opportunities and drive action towards a more sustainable world. This dataset comes from question W3.2d asking companies to list the inherent water risks that could generate a substantive change in their business, operations, revenue or expenditure, the potential impact to their supply chain and the strategies to mitigate them.
