Download or read book Wholesale Market Management written by Bob Densley and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 1999 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In most countries, wholesale markets remain an essential link between production and consumption. That they should be well managed is essential as higher marketing costs lead to lower prices for producers and higher prices charged to consumers. Inefficient markets also increase the risk of problems of hygiene, environmental degradation and transport congestion, among others. With rapid urban growth, wholesale markets will continue to channel a wide variety of produce to urban consumers, despite the development of new distribution techniques, such as direct supply from farmers to supermarkets. This manual analyses the political, legal, economic and commercial aspects of the management and operations of wholesale markets. The European experience in Spain, France, Germany, Britain and Italy is presented; as well as in Japan, Hong Kong, the USA, South Africa, Australia and Argentina.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basic approaches to maintaining the safety and quality of horticultural produce are the same, regardless of the market to which this produce is targeted.

Download or read book Manual for the Preparation and Sale of Fruits and Vegetables written by Andrés F. López Camelo and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2004 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fruit and vegetable production sector of Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia and Eastern Europe is facing a new situation where, on the one hand, supermarket chains account for an increasing percentage of the domestic food retail market and, on the other hand, producers must compete in an increasingly demanding global market for non traditional and off-season fruits and vegetables. Small farmers are increasingly being marginalized and will be facing unequal market conditions unless they are able to change their practices to meet the needs of a modern food marketing system. Regardless of the production system, the technological challenge is to increase returns through the rational use of available resources, reducing production costs and post-harvest losses, enhancing competitiveness and adding value to the final product.
Download or read book Controlled Atmosphere Storage of Grains written by J. Shejbal and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Controlled Atmosphere Storage of Grains emerged from the International Symposium on Controlled Atmosphere Storage of Grains held at Castelgandolfo, near Rome, Italy, from May 12-15, 1980. The event was organized by ASSORENI (Association of ENI Companies for Scientific Research) and co-sponsored by FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations), ICC (International Association for Cereal Chemistry) and the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The event was the first international symposium ever held on the subject and the entire breadth of the field of grain storage in controlled atmospheres was included in the six sessions, from naturally produced oxygen-poor atmospheres in underground pits to sophisticated automatic inert gas industrial storage facilities. The present volume is organized into seven parts corresponding to the six Sessions of original papers and the Round Table Discussion Session. Parts I-VI contain papers presented during the sessions on natural air-tight storage, entomology of controlled atmosphere storage, microbiology of controlled atmosphere storage, artificial controlled atmosphere storage, preservation of quality in controlled atmospheres, and facilities for artificial controlled atmosphere storage and economic aspects. The Round Table Discussion in Part VII presents the wrap-up reports for the six Sessions followed by a general discussion.
