Some Investigations on Improvement of Effectiveness of Supply Chain Management in an Indian Context

Abstract

Farm mechanization allows in effective utilization of inputs to increase the productiveness of land and labor. Except it enables in decreasing the drudgery in farm operations. The early agricultural mechanization in India becomes substantially motivated by the technological development in India. Irrigation pumps, tillage system, chaff cutters, tractors and threshers had been progressively added for farm mechanization. The high yielding sorts with assured irrigation and higher charge of application of fertilizers gave better returns that enabled farmers to undertake mechanization inputs, specifically after green revolution in 1960. The improvement of power thresher in 1960, with integrated bhusa making attachment and aspirator blower and mechanical sieves for grain and straw separation, was the predominant success of Indian engineers. Those threshers have been broadly followed through the farmers. Steadily demand for different farm machinery including reapers and combine harvesters additionally elevated. Gadget for tillage, sowing, irrigation, plant safety and threshing were extensively general by using the farmers. Even farmers with small holdings make use of many improved farm gadget through custom hiring to make sure timeliness of farming operations.
The present fashion in agricultural mechanization is for high capability machines through custom hiring and for contractual area operations. But, mechanization of horticulture, plantation vegetation and industrial agriculture is yet to be brought inside the tempo of farm mechanization within the India. Expanded with the manufacture of agricultural system by the neighborhood industries. With the modest starting of manufacture of tractors in 1960 with foreign collaboration, today the Indian farm equipment industries meet the bulk of the requirement of mechanization inputs and also export. The manufacture of agricultural machinery in India is pretty complicated comprising of village artisans, tiny gadgets, small-scale industries, country agro-business improvement companies and prepared tractor, engine and processing system industries. Traditional hand gear and bullock drawn implements are in large part fabricated by means of village craftsmen (blacksmith and carpenters) and small-scale industries. The small-scale industries depend upon public institutions for technological aid. Those industries, however, upgrade those designs and manufacturing approaches with experience. Organized sectors confine to the manufacture of machines like tractors, engines, milling and dairying gadget. Those industries have adopted sophisticated production technologies, and some of them in shape international requirements. The improved scope of import of technology (product designs and production method) with the aid of organized sector and access of foreign investors is possibly to boost up exports. In view that cost of production of farm equipment in India is extra aggressive because of lower labor wages. Indian products, but, shall want enhancements in high-quality for gaining primary export growth. For this, mass production of critical and speedy wearing components and their standardization would substantially help. Keywords: Agricultural industries, Agricultural industries supply chain management, Agro food Market.
