| description |
This study is designed to build a link
between the study and improvement of agriculture and that of
logistics for agricultural exports, and complements the
Grenada Small Farmer Vulnerability Reduction project. The
objective of logistics chain analysis (LCA) is to understand
product movement for two of Grenada's primary
agricultural exports and identify opportunities to enhance
competitiveness for these and other products by improving
logistics. Logistics refers to the infrastructure,
machinery, related services, and information systems that
allow products to move from the original point of production
to the final point of consumption. The analysis identifies
where logistics inefficiencies, from the farm gate to the
port of exit, increase logistics expenses, travel times, and
uncertainty. A strategic plan to increase agricultural
exports must involve coordinated public and private
investments in the infrastructure, equipment and services
necessary for exporters to load and unload products at their
own warehouses. Further diagnostic work will be needed to
identify the proper technical projects and investments,
assess their potential costs and impacts for nutmeg and
cocoa exports, as well as for agricultural exports in general. |
