I. SUSTAINABILITY AND RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN

This section should provide information on the preparedness of the proponents/FCAs to

manage the impact of the natural calamities to the enterprise activities. Likewise, identify the
different risks that the organization may encounter (i.e. occurrence of pests and diseases,
calamities that would affect production, and environmental concerns) and mitigating measures
that could be applied if the risks occur. To facilitate this, the PRDP’s Business Continuity Plan
will be adopted using the template below.
