Specialization in international trade carries risk. Small countries often have a small number of products that make up the majority of their exports. Examples of risks that could hurt the economy of these countries are that raw material exports could be used up and foodstuffs could be destroyed by natural disasters.
The conclusion is the author’s warning about specialization in international trade: “such specialization carries risks.”

This is a premise. It demonstrates why specialization is risky. If countries rely on only a few products, their exports are not diversified against disaster.
