The main objective of the book is to provide an empirical evidence for stakeholders in the agricultural value-chain to improve efficiencies in food crops agro-processing in Ghana. The research project, undertaken by economic and financial research experts, focussed on food crops agro-processing firms' structure and concentration, ownership and employment characteristics, operational capacities, use of technology, productivity, and credit conditions. It also discusses constraints facing firms in the food crop agro-processing industry regarding standardisation, quality control and marketing. The book categorically outlines the context, opportunities and challenges in promoting food crops agro-processing in Ghana. It also provides a framework that will enable policy makers and other actors to prioritise interventions needed for using agro-processing to rationalise industrialisation, substitute import, create jobs and promote inclusive growth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Timothy Afful-Koomson,William Fonta,Stephen Frimpong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9988633858\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789988633851\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e United Nations University Institute for Natur\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/23\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.48d","brand":"Timothy Afful-Koomson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48454131515647,"sku":"9789988633851","price":63.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5155af56-45d8-4de4-875f-fac1b5ea19a5.jpg?v=1777304353","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/economic-and-financial-analyses-of-timothy-afful-koomson-9789988633851","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
