Agro Processing
Processing agricultural inputs where yield varies with the crop and procurement is seasonal.
Also covers: Food Grain Processing · Spice Processing · Oil Mill
About this industry
Agro processing takes a variable natural input and produces a graded output. Yield depends on the lot, moisture is both a cost and a quality parameter, and procurement is concentrated into a season that commits most of the year's working capital. The economics are decided at procurement and measured at processing.
Common operational problems
- Yield varies by lot and is compared against a standard that fits none of them
- Moisture affects both weight paid for and weight sold
- Procurement is seasonal and commits capital against uncertain yield
- Grading at intake is subjective and unrecorded
- By-products have value that is realised inconsistently
Example workflows
Intake recorded with weight, moisture and assessed grade per lot
Processing yield measured against the specific lot
By-products recorded and valued rather than treated as waste
Supplier performance compared on realised yield, not on rate
Seasonal procurement planned against measured historical yield
