Agricultural drought disaster risk assessment is one of the most important basic researches on the quantitative understandingof the mechanism of drought risk and scientific control of drought risk. Assessment method based on fuzzy theory and setpair analysis can take the multi-scale feature of information and fuzzy property of assessment criteria into full account. The pre -sented method is simple in concept and convenient to calculate. Both agricultural drought risk assessment system and evaluationindexes are constituted by the hazard subsystem, exposure subsystem, damage sensitivity subsystem and drought resistance capacitysubsystem. The assessment method is firstly applied to the agricultural drought disaster risk assessment. The results show that thepresented method is satisfactory and it will provide a new approach for the evaluation of agricultural drought disaster risk.
