INDIA AND THE AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY
Agriculture in India is one of the most prominent sectors in its economy. Agriculture and allied sectors like
forestry, logging and fishing accounted for 18.6% of the GDP in 2005 and employed 60% of the country's
population. It accounts for 8.56 % of India’s exports. About 43 % of India's geographical area is used for
agricultural activity. Despite a steady decline of its share in the GDP, agriculture is still the largest economic
sector and plays a significant role in the overall socio-economic development of India. In fact, in the formal
pre-budget consultations for 2011-12, Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee expressed hope to see a
significant rebound in agriculture and allied sector growth at about 6%.
AGRICULTURE TYPES
Farm Households with Multiple Employment
Increasing population and the custom of dividing the farm among the children with the change of generation
have resulted in an ever increasing reduction of farm sizes. Many farms have become so small that they do
not suffice as the family's basis of livelihood. On the other hand, in many countries, the number of job
opportunities outside agriculture or even outside the country has increased. Both factors have caused the
13
spread of multiple employments among small holder household members, which, to a limited extant, always
existed. Differences in family and farm structure, in resource endowment in the region and at the level of
general economic development have led to different types of multiple employments.
Individual Income Combination
Here, the cultivator himself takes up a non-agricultural main or side occupation or works as agricultural
labourer on other farms. This always is necessary if no children of working age are available. It is often
difficult to combine both activities because the animals need daily care and because of the seasonality of
labour demand in agriculture. As daily presence on the farm is necessary, the second job can be taken up
locally, where job opportunities are usually limited, except near cities.
Household Income Combination
Here, one or more sons (in some societies, daughters as well) take up non- agricultural employment or work as
agricultural labourers and give at least part of their salary to their family. The job can be taken up locally or in
distant places, even abroad, because the children are not tied to the farm. It can be permanent or assumed
whenever employment is offered. In other cases, working life is divided into two sections. Up till about 45
years of age, the men work outside the village, often in distant places, and the father operates the farm.
When he becomes too old and weak, the son takes over the cultivation, but at that time usually, his children
are of working age.
Extended Family Economy
Nuclear families maintain close social and economic ties even after migration. A network of cooperating
families of various types is emerging with the farm as center. The urban branches of the extended family
receive foodstuffs from their parents' farm as support or for sentimental reasons, sometimes let their
preschool children live on the farm to save rent in the city, and have the right to return, which is an
important security. Inversely, services are offered the other way round in the form of help during harvest
time or remittances. These do not have to be regular, but are affected whenever needed for investments or
repairs.
Household Production
An effect similar to that of gainful employment outside the farm can be achieved if production and repairs are
effected within the household. Production and processing bring income, and if the farmers do the
maintenance and repair work themselves instead of letting others do it against payment, this saves
expenditure and thus increases the standard of living. While in former times this was widespread and
constituted an important way of improving the level of living, with increasing development and specialization
of activities, its importance is shrinking. However, situations vary, and in more remote regions or times of
depression, this may be the only possibility to improve the standard of living beyond the proceeds of the farm.
Here, in any case, the contribution made by women is the largest.
AGRICULTURE EDUCATION IN INDIA
India has a very strong agricultural education system in the country consisting of one Central Agricultural
University, thirty-one State Agricultural Universities (SAUs) and four National Institutes of Indian Council of
Agricultural Research having the status of Deemed to be University.
Among the Deemed Universities, Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI) was established a century ago
and was given the status of Deemed University in 1958. The other Deemed Universities viz., Indian Veterinary
Research Institute (IVRI), Izzatnagar (U.P.), National Dairy Research Institute (NDRI), Karnal and Central
Institute of Fisheries Education (CIFE), Mumbai cater to quality education in animal sciences, dairy & fishery
sectors respectively. The SAUs are spread over the entire country and cater to HRD in agriculture and allied
fields in different agro-climatic regions.
14
Facilities
The Agricultural universities in India have excellent infrastructural facilities like laboratories, libraries,
computer centres and instructional farms. Generally all universities have residential requirements and
students are required to stay in hostels. All foreign students are provided accommodation on the campus.
Several universities also have furnished hostels for international students.
There are limited hostel facilities for married students also. For cultural exchange and understanding,
foreign students are encouraged to stay in the same hostels with other Indian students. However, to
overcome
constraints faced by them particularly with different food habits, Council is in the process of constructing
foreign student’s hostels in SAU’s and DU’s. For all round development of students, sports and games facilities
on all campuses are available in each Universities/Institutes.
Central Agricultural University
Central Agricultural University, Manipur: The Central Agricultural University has been established by an act of
Parliament, the Central Agricultural University Act 1992 (No.40 of 1992). The Act came into effect on 26th
January, 1993 with the issue of necessary notification by the Department of Agricultural Research and
Education (DARE), Govt. of India.
The University became functional with the joining of first Vice-Chancellor on 13th September, 1993. The
jurisdiction of the University extends to six North-Eastern Hill States viz., Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur,
Meghalaya, Mizoram, Sikkim and Tripura, with headquarters at Imphal in Manipur.

AGRICULTURAL MARKETING
Organised marketing of agricultural commodities has been promoted in the country through a network of
regulated markets. Most of the State governments and Union Territories have enacted legislations (APMC
Act) to provide for regulation of agricultural produce markets. While by the end of 1950, there were 286
regulated
markets in the country, today the number stands at 7,521 (31.3.2005). Besides, the country has 27,294
rural periodical markets, about 15 per cent of which function under the ambit of regulation. The advent of
regulated markets has helped in mitigating the market handicaps of producers/ sellers at the wholesale
assembling level. But, the rural periodic markets in general, and the tribal markets in particular, remained out
of its developmental ambit.
Agriculture sector needs well functioning markets to drive growth, employment and economic prosperity in
rural areas of the country. In order to provide dynamism and efficiency into the marketing system, large
investments are required for the development of post harvest and cold chain infrastructure nearer to the
farmers’ field.
The Ministry of Agriculture formulated a model law on agricultural marketing for guidance and adoption by
State Governments. The model legislation provides for establishment of Private Markets/Yards, Direct
Purchase Centres, Consumer/Farmers Markets for direct sale and promotion of Public Private Partnership in
the management and development of agricultural markets in the country. Provision has also been made in the
Act for constitution of State Agricultural Produce Marketing Standards Bureau for promotion of Grading,
Standardisation and Quality Certification of agricultural produce. This would facilitate pledge financing, direct
purchasing, forward/future trading and exports. Several States have initiated steps for amending the APMC
Act.
16
INDIAN GOVERNMENT INITIATIVE TO UPGRADE AGRICULTURE
With a view to induce investment in the development of marketing infrastructure, the Ministry has
implemented the following Plan Schemes:
• A capital investment subsidy scheme titled "Construction of Rural Godowns" was implemented w.e.f. 1
April 2001. The main objectives of the scheme includes creation of scientific storage capacity with allied
facilities in rural areas to meet various requirements of farmers for storing farm produce, processed farm
produce, agricultural inputs, etc., and prevention of distress sale by creating the facility of pledge loan and
marketing credit. Under the original scheme, back ended subsidy @ 25 per cent of capital cost of the project
was provided. In case of NE States, hilly areas and SC/ST entrepreneurs, subsidy was provided @ 33.33 per
cent of the capital cost of the project. The Scheme has since been modified with effect from 20 October 2004,
to provide subsidy @ 25 per cent to farmers, Agriculture graduates, cooperatives and Central Warehousing
Corporation/State Warehousing Corporations. All other categories of individuals companies and corporations
are now given subsidy @ 15 per cent of the project cost. The scheme has been made farmers’ friendly by
allowing subsidy for smaller godowns of 50 MT size in general and of 25 in hilly areas. Five lakh tonnes
capacity to be created is reserved for small farmers. The scheme is being implemented through NABARD and
NCDC. Till
31 May 2006, 11,583 storage projects having a capacity of 166.42 lakh tonnes have been sanctioned under the
scheme.
• With a view to establish a nation-wide information network for speedy collection and dissemination of
price and market related information to farmers, electronic connectivity is being provided to all important
agricultural markets in the country under a Central scheme, "Market Research and Information Network".
2,408 market nodes and 92 State Marketing Boards and Directorate of Marketing and Inspection offices have
been networked on a single portal, wherein daily prices of more than 300 commodities and about 2000
varieties are being reported. It is planned to connect 2,700 markets in all, under the scheme during the 10th
Plan.
• The Ministry of Agriculture is implementing another Central Sector scheme for "Development /
Strengthening of Agricultural Marketing Infrastructure, Grading and Standardisation". Under the scheme,
investment subsidy is provided @ 25 per cent on the capital cost of the marketing infrastructure development
project subject to a maximum of Rs 50 lakh for each project in all States and @ 33.3 per cent of capital cost
subject to a maximum of Rs 60 lakh for each project in case of North Eastern States, hilly areas and to
Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes entrepreneurs. In respect of infrastructure projects of State
Governments/State Agencies, there is no upper ceiling on subsidy to be provided under the scheme. The
scheme is reform linked, to be implemented in those States/Union Territories wherein the law dealing with
agriculture markets (Agricultural Produce Marketing Regulation Act) allows setting up of competitive
agricultural markets in private and cooperative sectors, direct marketing and contract farming. The States of
Andhra Pradesh, Punjab, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Manipur, Sikkim, Madhya Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Nagaland,
Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh and Union Territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Daman and Diu and Dadra and
Nagar Haveli have notified to receive assistance under the Scheme. The remaining States/UTs are in the
process of amending their APMC Acts. 158 training and awareness programmes have been conducted in the
notified States/UTs. A total number of 259 new project proposals have been provided advance subsidy of Rs
516.30 lakh by NABARD in the States of Madhya Pradesh, Tamilnadu, Punjab, Andhra Pradesh and Kerala.
• The Department has recently taken the initiative to promote modern terminal markets for fruits,
vegetables and other perishables in important urban centres of the country. These markets would provide
state of art infrastructure facilities for electronic auction, cold chain and logistics and operate through primary
collection centres conveniently located in producing areas to allow easy access to farmers. The terminal
markets are envisaged to operate on a ‘Hub-and-Spoke’ format wherein the Terminal Market (the hub) would
be linked to a number of collection centres (the spokes), conveniently located in key production centres to
allow easy access to farmers for the marketing of their produce. The concept on setting up of Terminal
17
Markets for perishable commodities was discussed with the State Governments and interested private
enterprises at a national conference of State Ministers held on 20 February 2006 at New Delhi. Based on the
discussions, a Committee has been constituted under the Chairmanship of Director General, National
Institute of Agricultural Marketing, Jaipur with members from participating State Governments to develop a
framework
for the bidding process for selecting the enterprise for the implementation of terminal market projects and
to work out implementation modalities. Central assistance to these projects is planned by way of equity
participation.
The Department of Agriculture and Cooperation has three organisations dealing with marketing under its
administrative control, namely, the Directorate of Marketing and Inspection (DMI), Faridabad, the Ch.
Charan
Singh National Institute of Agricultural Marketing (NIAM), Jaipur and the Small Farmers Agri-Business
Consortium (SFAC), New Delhi.
DIRECTORATE OF MARKETING AND INSPECTION It is an attached office of the Department and is headed by Agricultural Marketing Adviser. The Directorate
has its Head Office at Faridabad (Haryana), Branch Head Office at Nagpur (Maharashtra), 11 Regional Offices
and the Central Agmark Laboratory at Nagpur. Besides, there are 26 Sub-Offices, 16 Regional Agmark
Laboratories (RALs) spread all over the country.
Functions of Directorate
• Rendering advice on statutory regulation, development and management of agricultural produce
markets to the States/UTs
• Promotion of Standardization and Grading of agricultural and allied produce under the Agricultural
Produce (Grading and Marking) Act, 1937
• Market Research, Surveys and Planning
• Training of personnel in Agricultural Marketing
• Marketing Extension
• Agricultural Marketing Information Network
• Construction of Rural Godowns and
• Development of Agricultural Marketing Infrastructure
GRADING AND STANDARDIZATION The Agricultural Produce (Grading and Marking) Act, 1937 empowers the Government to fix quality standards,
known as “AGMARK” standards and to prescribe terms and conditions for using the seal of ‘AGMARK’. So
far, grade standards have been notified for 182 agricultural and allied commodities. The purity standards
under
the provision of the Prevention of Food Adulteration (PFA) Act, 1954 and Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) Act,
1986 are invariably taken into consideration while framing the grade standards. International Standards
framed by Codex/International Standards Organisation (ISO) are also considered so that Indian produce can
compete in the international market.
NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF AGRICULTURAL MARKETING The National Institute of Agricultural Marketing (NIAM) started functioning at Jaipur (Rajasthan) from 8 August
1988. NIAM has been imparting training to senior and middle level executives of agricultural and
horticultural departments, Agro Industries, Corporations, State Marketing Boards, Agricultural Produce
Market Committees and Apex level Cooperatives, Commodity Boards, export houses recognised by
Agricultural and Processed
18
Food Products Export Development Agency (APEDA), Commercial Banks and non-governmental organizations.
Besides these clients, the NIAM also imparts training to farmers on marketing management.
The NIAM is managed by a Governing Body under the Chairmanship of Minister of Agriculture and an
Executive Committee under the Chairmanship of Secretary, Department of Agriculture and Cooperation.
Training Activities
The Institute organises Training Programmes for officials, farmers and other functionaries. In 2003-04,
Management Development Programmes (MDP) were introduced. So far four MDPs have been successfully
organised for leading companies like Bayer Crop Science, MICO BOSCH, etc. The MDPs were held at NIAM
campus and 120 working executives of these MNCs working in various capacities have been benefited from
this programme. All these MDPs were rated excellent by the participants and many other companies have
shown keen interest in organising MDPs at NIAM, Jaipur.
Research
The domestic Agricultural Marketing scenario has witnessed lot of changes in policies and regulations. The
enactment of Model Act by some States has brought substantial improvements in trade and marketing.
Following Research studies are being conducted by NIAM during the year 2005-06.
• Contract Farming – prospects and implications
• Commodity Trade Research
• Market led extension – a participatory approach
• Developing India GAP Standards
• Information need assessment of stakeholders in Agricultural Marketing – A case of Rajasthan
Project Formulation

Subcentre of MANAGE, Hyderabad from July 2001 and 50 students are presently undergoing Post-Graduate
Programme in Agri-Business. The programme is designed to assist agricultural graduates to acquire the critical
know-how to compete in the domestic and global business arena and to make them efficient agri-business
managers.
Small Farmers Agri-Business Consortium
The Small Farmers Agri-business Consortium (SFAC) was registered by Department of Agriculture and
Cooperation as a Society under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 on 18 January 1994. Members at present
include RBI, SBI, IDBI, EXIM Bank, Oriental Bank of Commerce, NABARD, Canara Bank, NAFED, United
Phosphorous Ltd., etc.
The SAFC is managed by a Board of Managers consisting of 20 members and chaired by Hon’ble Union
Minister of Agriculture as its Ex-Officio President and the Secretary (Department of Agriculture and
Cooperation), Government of India as its Ex-Officio Vice President. Managing Director is the Chief Executive of
19
SFAC. SFAC has established 18 State level SFACs by contributing a corpus fund. The mission of the Society is to
support innovative ideas for generating income and employment in rural areas by promoting private
investments in agribusiness projects.
The Central sector scheme for agri-business development implemented by SFAC was approved by the
Government on 19 July 2005 for implementation during remaining period of the Tenth Plan with an outlay of
Rs 48 crore. The scheme is being implemented by SFAC in close association with commercial banks for
providing
• Venture Capital Assistance to agribusiness projects and
• Assist farmer/producer groups in preparation of quality Detailed Project Reports (DPR).
The main objectives of the scheme are to facilitate setting up of agribusiness ventures in participation with
banks, catalyse private investment in setting up of agribusiness projects and thereby providing assured
market to producers for increasing rural income and employment, strengthen backward linkages of agri-
business projects with producers, assist farmers, producer groups, and agriculture graduates to enhance their
participation in value chain through project development facility, arrange training and visits, etc., of
agripreneurs setting up identified agribusiness projects. SFAC provides financial assistance to agribusiness
projects by way of equity participation.
The quantum of SFAC venture capital assistance depended on the project cost and will be the lowest of the
following:
• 10 % of the total project cost assessed by the bank
• 26 % of the project equity
• Rs 75 lakh
Higher venture capital assistance can be considered by SFAC to deserving projects on merit and/or to
projects that are located in remote and backward areas, North-eastern and hilly States and projects
recommended by
State agencies. The outlay for implementation of the scheme during 2005–2006 was Rs. 10 crore which has
been utilised. During the year venture capital assistance has been sanctioned to 44 agribusiness projects and
assistance has been provided for preparation of 11 Detailed Project Reports (DPRs). The allocation for
implementation of the scheme during

progress and their role in, and contribution to agricultural progress has particularly been significant. The
schemes regarding the construction of godowns and the conversion of villages into model villages have
assumed great importance in the wake of the Green Revolution.
The Co-operative Movement was introduced into India by the Government as the only method by which
the farmers could overcome their burden of debt and keep them away from the clutches of the money-
lenders.
The Co-operative Credit Societies Act, 1904 was passed by the Government of India and rural credit societies
were formed. Through the appointment of registrars and through vigorous propaganda, the Government
attempted to popularize the Movement in the rural areas. Within a short period, the Government realized
some of the shortcomings of the 1904 Act and, therefore, passed a more comprehensive Act, known as
the Co-operative Societies Act of 1912. This Act recognized non-credit societies also. But the rural credit
societies have continued to be predominant till now.
The Primary Agricultural Credit/Service Societies
The agricultural co-operative credit structure in the Punjab State is broadly divided into two sectors, one
dealing with the short-terms and medium-terms finance and the other with the long-term credit. In the State,
the short-term and medium-term credit structure is based on a three-tier system, i.e., the Apex Co-operative
Bank at the State level, the Central Co-Coperative Bank at the district/tehsil level and the Primary Agricultural
Credit Societies at the village level. The major objectives of the primary agricultural credit service societies are
to supply agricultural credit to meet the requirements of funds for agricultural production, the distribution of
essential consumer commodities, the provision of storage and marketing facilities and for light agricultural
implements and machinery.
21
Agricultural Non-Credit Societies
While credit is and must remain for some time the chief concern of the Co-operative Movement relatively
slow, since 1912, when the non-credit societies were brought officially under the aegis of the Movement. The
World War II (1939-45) came as a God send boon with respect to the development of the Co-operative
Movement. Prices of agricultural goods began to rise and touched new peaks. The repayment of loans was
accelerated and deposits began to pour in. The number of societies also rose. Another interesting
development in co-operative during the War was the extension of the Movement to non-credit activities, viz
consumers’ co-operative marketing societies, consolidation societies, etc.
Agricultural co-operative Marketing Societies
Marketing has occupied a far smaller place in the co-operative picture in India than in many countries, notably
Denmark and the USA, but not other non-credit line of co-operation, with the possible exception of the
consolidation of land holdings and joint farming enterprises, seems to hold greater possibilities of help to the
agricultural population of India. The development of co-operative marketing in India is closely bound up with the
problem of credit-the claims of the money-lenders commonly inhibiting the cultivator’s freedom of action in
disposing of his crop.
Co-operative Farming Societies
The Royal Commission on Agriculture in 1928 observed that it co-operation failed, there would fail the hope
of the Indian agriculturist. Co-operative farming is a compromise between collective farming and the
peasant proprietorship and gives all merits of large-scale farming without abolishing private property. It
implies an organization of the farmers on the basis of common efforts for common interests. Under this
system, all
landowners in a village form a co-operative society for tilling the land. The land is pooled, but each farmer
retains the right of property. The produce is distributed by each. They are allowed to withdraw from the
cooperative farm whenever they de3sire. In India, the exceedingly small size of holdings is perhaps the most
serious defect in our agriculture. If agriculture has to be improved, the size of the holdings must be enlarged.

• Co-operative Consumer’s Societies
• Co-operative Housing Societies

CORPORATES IN AGRICULTURE
Agriculture -- across the expanse of India -- is heralding the country's second Green Revolution. Fourteen
states, including Maharashtra, Punjab, Andhra Pradesh and Rajasthan amended the Agricultural Produce
Marketing Committee (APMC) Act this year, along the lines of the Model APMC Act, '02, which allows farmers
to sell their produce directly to buyers offering them the best price. And, agriculture sectors such as
horticulture, floriculture, development of seeds, animal husbandry, aqua culture, cultivation of vegetables,
mushroom under cultivated conditions and services related to agro and allied sectors are open to 100 per cent
foreign direct investment (FDI) through the automatic route.
According to Economic Survey 2006-07:
• Agricultural growth is pegged at 2.7 %
22
• Total food grains production in 2006-07 estimated at 209.2 metric tonnes (MT).
• Total water availability in reservoirs up 10 per cent to 120.2 billion cubic meters (BCM) at the end of
monsoon 2006.
• Fishing, aquaculture and allied activities made for 5.3 % of the agricultural gross domestic product
(GDP).
• Production of wheat and other rabi crops brightened with welcome rain in February 2007 -- sugarcane,
cotton, and jute to set new records.
Already it is one of the most important sectors of the economy contributing 18.5 per cent of national income,
about 15 per cent of total exports and supporting two-thirds of the work force. And with recent
developments, it is going to play a more dynamic role in the economy.
Corporate Interest
Increasingly a number of players in the private sector have evinced a keen interest to tap the potential of
Indian agriculture. A number of corporates have entered into a direct agreement with farmers to grow specific
crops.
• Cadbury India Ltd and the Tamil Nadu Horticulture Department have entered into an agreement to
promote cocoa farming in 50,000 acres as an intercrop through a contract farming and buyback arrangement
with coconut farmers, providing an additional income of US$ 19.77 million a year to farmers.
• The US$ 4.5-billion Mahindra Group intends to tap Punjab’s agriculture potential by taking up potato
seed development in the state through contract farming. The company will provide technical know-how and
extension services to the farmers for producing high quality potato seeds.
• Himalaya Drugs plans to associate with small and marginal farmers across southern Indian states
including Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka for sourcing at least 70% of its herbs (the core
ingredients in herbal drugs) in the next three to four years. It has identified over 1,500 farmers in the south
and currently, about 70 per cent is cultivated by the company and 30 per cent is through contract farming.
• With a US$ 5.6 billion, multi-year investment in agriculture and retail, Reliance Retail is in the process
of establishing links with farms on several thousand acres in Punjab, West Bengal and Maharashtra.
• Wal-Mart is one of the top two retail companies that source Indian products. In 2006, Wal-Mart
directly sourced approximately US$ 600 million in goods from suppliers in India.

GLOBAL AGRICULTURAL INDUSTRY
RECENT MARKET DYNAMICS
The overriding market dynamic that have governed the price behaviour of global agriculture commodities have
been factors of supply and demand. Growth in global demand over recent years has outpaced supply
throughout the world, sharply reducing global commodity inventories. This trend of tight market conditions is
projected to persist for many commodities into the next decade, sustaining relatively high agricultural
commodity prices.
On an historic timescale, agriculture products are still near all time record prices. Demand is forecast to
increase due to several key factors. First and foremost, the world population is expected to increase by
approximately 1.2 billion people by the year 2020 (United Nations, constant fertility variable). At the same
time, per capita daily caloric intake for the world’s population is now 2800 kcal, compared to 2280 kcal in the
early 1960’s, and continues to rise (FAO, 2006 and the State of Food and Agriculture Report 2007, FAO).
Simply put, more people times more caloric intake equals more food consumption. To compound matters, an
increasing percent of world food consumption is meat, which exponentially increases grain demand. (It
requires at least seven pounds of grain to produce one pound of beef protein!) In China alone, annual per
capita meat consumption has increased a 150%, from 44 lbs in 1980 to 110 lbs in 2007 (Time Magazine, May
19, 2008).
Along with an increasing global population, worldwide robust economic growth has and will continue to
increase demand for agricultural products. Most of this global economic growth is occurring in non-OECD
countries where increasing per capita incomes lead to a movement away from staple diets such as rice to more
diverse, higher calorie diets which include fruits, vegetables and meat. The developing world’s increasingly
diverse diet impact on global agriculture demand is compounded by the fact that population growth rates in
developing countries are nearly double those of developed countries (economic research service, USDA).
RELATED MARKET FACTORS
While the main factors governing price movements are stated above, several additional factors contribute to
global supply/demand imbalances. These include cyclically poor harvests related to weather, restrictive
trade
policies and the increasing diversion of crops for bio fuel production. Many locations are experiencing climate
driven events such as floods and droughts, which some observers ascribe to climate change induced by CO2
emissions. Australia’s wheat output, for example, has decreased substantially in recent years due to a
persistent lack of precipitation in the region. Restrictive trade policies, such as India’s decision to temporarily
stop rice exports, only put further strains on prices.
The price of oil is also a principal driver of the price of agricultural commodities because oil is a key ingredient
in most fertilizers, is required to run modern agricultural machinery and is needed to transport goods to
market. Production of various bio-fuels diverts a large volume of global cultivated corn and grains to the
production of ethanol and likewise greatly reduces the supply of corn and grains for human consumption,
adding to price pressures.
INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENTS
Over the past forty years there has been a significant change in the composition of agricultural production.
The global output of cereals, oil crops, sugar, vegetables, eggs and meat has increased more than the global
population, while global output of pulses (annual leguminous crops yielding from one to twelve grains or
24
seeds of variable size, shape and colour within a pod, e.g. Lima bean, pinto bean, lentil), roots and tubers (ex.
Potato) has declined relative to total population growth. While cereal production has increased faster than
the global population, it has failed to keep pace with historical production growth rates. The opposite is true
for oil seeds, which have exploded in production due to demand in developing countries. The production of
meat and eggs has grown even faster than oil seeds due to the increased standards of living (State of Food
and Agriculture Report 2007, FAO).
While international trade of animal products remains dependent on exports from developed countries, there
is strong support for policies in developing countries to produce domestic meat. This is likely to have the effect
of increasing the amount of grain imported by developing countries, especially to countries with lack of
harvestable land such as the Middle East, North Africa and Southeast Asia (economic research service, USDA).
INDUSTRY OUTLOOK
The traditional exporters of staple agricultural goods, such as Australia, Argentina, Canada, the European
Union and the United States will remain important suppliers in the future, but other countries such as Brazil,
Russia, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan are making significant agriculture investments that should over time fill the
supply demand gap (economic research service, USDA). Accordingly, as agriculture prices increase,
agriculture production is likely to rise through technological innovations and increased amounts of cultivated
land. Still, significant challenges remain, based on constraints on the expansion of land under cultivation due
to agroclimatic conditions and the fact that the world has a fixed size and area.
Rising prices of agricultural inputs, such as oil, fertilizers, seeds and equipment, serve to raise the amount of
investment required to expand global agricultural production, thereby threatening to lower production and
threaten future supply (economic research service, USDA).
25
AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY EXPOSURE THROUGH EQUITIES
The value of a portfolio of agriculture equities is often influenced, although not determined, by the prices of
the agriculture commodities. In fact, correlations between the prices of agricultural producers and the
commodities they produce tend to be low. Like other equities, agricultural companies will be influenced by a
number of factors unrelated to agriculture commodity prices, such as earnings, operating efficiency,
regulation, management expertise and interest rates.
Furthermore, producers of packaged food products tend not to benefit from rising commodity prices, as their
margins often come under pressure as their input costs rise, while resistance to higher prices at the consumer
level constrains demand. The equity price trends of “primary” agricultural producers, on the other hand, tend
to follow or exceed the price trends of the underlying agriculture commodities, especially when agriculture
commodity prices are strongly trending. “Primary” agricultural producers include suppliers of seeds, traits,
fertilizers, chemicals, equipment and irrigation systems.
Over time, demand for agricultural products is inelastic – driven primarily by rising populations and improved
diets. Agricultural producers, in keeping up with this demand, may suffer the vagaries of commodity market
pricing, experiencing substantial price swings based on weather and the size and substance of the current
harvest. On the other hand, there is a degree of certainty in that the world will require an ever-growing
amount of primary agricultural products.
GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
With increased globalization and offshore sourcing, global supply chain management is becoming an
important issue for many businesses. Like traditional, supply chain management, the underlying factors
behind the trend are reducing the costs of procurement and decreasing the risks related to purchasing
activities. The big difference is that global supply chain management involves a company's worldwide interests
and suppliers rather than simply a local or national orientation.
Because global supply chain management usually involves a plethora of countries, it also usually comes with a
plethora of new difficulties that need to be dealt with appropriately. One that companies need to consider is
26
the overall costs. While local labour costs may be significantly lower, companies must also focus on the costs
of space, tariffs, and other expenses related to doing business overseas. Additionally, companies need to
factor in the exchange rate. Obviously, companies must do their research and give serious consideration to all
of these different elements as part of their global supply management approach.
Time is another big issue that should be addressed when dealing with global supply chain management. The
productivity of the overseas employees and the extended shipping times can either positively or negatively
affect the company's lead time, but either way these times need to be figured into the overall procurement
plan. Other factors can also come into play here as well. For example, the weather conditions on one side of
the world often vary greatly from those on the other and can impact production and shipping dramatically.
Also, customs clearance time and other governmental red tape can add further delays that need to be
planned for and figured into the big picture.
Besides contemplating these issues, a business attempting to manage its global supply chain must also ask
itself a number of other serious questions. First, the company needs to make decisions about its overall
outsourcing plan. For whatever reason, businesses may desire to keep some aspects of supply chain closer
to home. However, these reasons are not quite as important as other countries advance technologically. For
example, some parts of India have now become centres for high-tech outsourced services which may once
have been done in-house only out of necessity. Not only are provided to companies by highly qualified,
overseas workers, but they are being done at a fraction of the price they could be done in the United States or
any other Western country.
Another issue that must be incorporated into a global supply chain management strategy is supplier selection.
Comparing vendor bids from within the company's parent-country can be difficult enough but comparing
bids from an array of global suppliers can be even more complex. How to make these choices is one of the
first
decisions companies must make, and it should be a decision firmly based on research. Too often companies
jump on the lowest price instead of taking the time to factor in all of the other elements, including those
related to money and time which were discussed above. Additionally, companies must make decisions about
the number of suppliers to use. Fewer supplies may be easier to manage but could also lead to potential
problems if one vendor is unable to deliver as expected or if one vendor tries to leverage its supply power to
obtain price concessions.
Finally, companies who choose to ship their manufacturing overseas may have to face some additional
considerations as well. Questions regarding the number of plants that are needed, as well as the locations
for
those plants can pose difficult logistical problems for companies. However, it often helps to examine these
issues in terms of the global supply chain. For example, if a business uses a number of vendors around
Bangalore, India than it may make sense to locate the manufacturing plant that would utilize those supplies in
or around Bangalore as well. Not only will this provide lower employee costs, but overall shipping and tariff
expenses should also be reduced. This would then save the company money.
