Produktbeschreibung

Vegetable production and marketing is a means of income providing business opportunities for all actors in the value chain including the producers, brokers, transporters, and traders. The role of brokers in vegetable value chain is significant. They isolate the producers from the traders and make price often to the disadvantage of the producers. Producers are in a disadvantageous position in terms of vegetable value chain since they do not participate in the management of the whole value chain. Low production and productivity, flood, frost, insect & pest, limited extension support for production, quality of water, poor product handlings were among the major problems. The book also illustrated marketing constraints namely, imperfect pricing system, absence of law enforcement on standards, unable to have fixed market place, limited marketing extension support, lack of storage, lack of coordination among producers, lack of improvement for other actors in the channel and poor vertical linkages of producers with other value chain actors.
