Impact of Credit on Agricultural Producitivity:A Case Study of Zarai Taraqiat...sanaullah noonari
Agricultural sector is the largest contribution to Pakistan’s GDP. Agricultural credit plays an important role in
enhancing the agricultural productivity in developing countries like Pakistan. The government of Pakistan
introduced several agricultural credit loans through ZTBL and other commercial banks and institutional sources.
This study estimated constrains faced by the farmers in acquisitioned source. This study also estimated the
impact of credit on agricultural productivity. Data were collected randomly from 30 loanee farmers to three
selected ZTBL branches and 30 non loanee farmers in the same villages. It found that the credit has a positive
impact on the agricultural productivity and loanee farmers have more gross margins than non loanee farmers.
Now the problem is to remove the constraints which small farmers are facing in this regard and then improve the
utilization of the credit amount as planned at the time of disbursement in agriculture production process
following findings were found. A major proportion i.e.40.8% of the farmers belonged to young age group (36-45
years). It was found that majority of the respondents had low level of education in the selected area. More than
51.7% of the respondents had 6-10 acres of the land holding. A huge majority 95% of the respondents had
knowledge about the agricultural credit scheme of the ZTBL Bank. More than 56.75 of the loanees’ farmers
avail credit facilities for the first time from the ZTBL bank. A large majority 63.3 of the farmers were not
satisfied with the interest rate charged by the banks. It was found that a large number of farmers mutualized the
credit amount. About 66.7% farmers got agricultural credit facility from bank without facing any problem.
Result indicates that average cultivated area in case of loanee farmers is higher than non-loanee farmers. It was
conclude that the loanee farmers had more cost of production as compare to non loanee farmers. Results of
regression analysis indicate that credit had very normal impact on agricultural productivity as limiting factors is
the proper utilization of loan mount in agricultural sector. The most common utilization of credit amount as
construction, repair and renovation of the houses by the loanee farmers.

Rogers’s classic study on the diffusion of innovation helps explain how products are adopted
over time by different adopter categories. The adoption process that consumers go through can
be divided into a multistage hierarchy of effects. Rogers’s findings concerning the characteris-
tics of innovations can also help marketers successfully launch new products in global markets.
Research has suggested that Asian adopter categories differ from those found in the Western
model. An awareness of environmental sensitivity can help marketers determine whether con-
sumer and industry products must be adapted to the needs of different markets.
Discussion Questions
4-1. What are some of the elements that make up culture? How do these find expression in
your native culture?
4-2. What is the difference between a low-context culture and a high-context culture? Name
a country that is an example of each type and offer evidence for your answer.
4-3. How can Hofstede’s cultural typologies help Western marketers better understand Asian
culture?
4-4. Briefly explain the social research of Everett Rogers on the topics of diffusion of
innovation, characteristics of innovations, and adopter categories. How does the
adoption process in Asia differ from the traditional Western model?

Coffee Culture Around the World
Coffee’s Global Supply Chain
Coffee has become a key export commodity for developing nations
located along the equator. The two top coffee-growing countries,
Brazil and Vietnam, produce about half of the world’s supply of
beans. Rounding out the top five producers are Colombia, Indone-
sia, and Ethiopia.
Ethiopia is Africa’s biggest coffee producer and coffee is its number
1 export; domestic demand for this beverage is also strong. Uganda
is another important producer, but Uganda is a nation of tea drinkers,
so most of its coffee is exported. Governments in Uganda, Ethiopia,
and other Africa nations impose strict penalties on farmers who ignore
guidelines for producing quality beans.
There are approximately 100 different species of coffee trees. Cof-
fee is somewhat unique in that large-scale industrial farm production
is not possible. Coffee trees grow best on mountains at low altitudes
with exposure to full sun as well as shade. The trees begin flowering
following seasonal rainfall. Each flower, in turn, yields a fruit known
as a “cherry” that turns red when it is ripe; each cherry contains two
seeds. Picking is a highly labor-intensive activity. “Green coffee” is the
term for coffee seeds that have been extracted from the cherry but
not yet roasted.
The two most important coffee bean varieties are Arabica and
robusta. Coffee made from Arabica beans has a sweeter, less bitter
taste. By contrast, the robusta bean yields coffee that is less aromatic
but higher in caffeine. Vietnam is the leading exporter of robusta coffe.
Want to Start Business in Ethiopia, East Africa? Here are few Good Profitable...Ajjay Kumar Gupta
Ethiopia is one of the Africa’s fastest growing economies. The country’s growth originates from manufacturing, construction and agriculture-related industries. Although periodic drought and massive soil degradation have previously plagued the country’s agriculture, the sector remains the backbone of the country’s economy. Agriculture still accounts for up to 80% of total labor force, 84% of exports and 46.3% of gross domestic product (GDP). Additionally, other numerous economic activities rely on agriculture, including processing, marketing and export of agricultural commodities.

In the Adani-Hindenburg case, what is SEBI investigating.pptxAdani case
Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations. Nevertheless, the economic interest of the twelve FPIs based in tax haven jurisdictions still needs to be determined. The Adani Group firms classed these FPIs as public shareholders. According to Hindenburg, FPIs were used to get around regulatory standards.
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

4. INTRODUCTION:
Frozen gelato Custard is a natural, wholesome, frozen dairy product. It differs
from ice cream in both taste and texture. Frozen gelato custard is the finest
quality all natural with a commitment to incorporating the freshest, richest,
and creamiest ingredients into a world class product. Currently, the popular
product known as Frozen Custard in the Midwest and on the East Coast is not
available in Ethiopia. Our product will be unique to the Ethiopia.
Customers can choose their flavor of frozen custard (vanilla, chocolate, coffee,
blue berries and one or two additional daily flavors) and then choose to have it
mixed with their choice of Italian ice flavors. Then they can enjoy their
desserts in a warm, relaxing atmosphere similar to an upscale coffee house.
This frozen gelato custard was inspired from the richness of the Ethiopian
Yirgacheffe coffee. The fair-trade coffee is deep and rich, with hints of
chocolate in its taste. We use the French technique of making a custard base,
and only flavor it with the coffee and a hint of vanilla.
Frozen Gelato Custard has…
Rich Flavor because it is made with an Egg Base
Less Fat and Sugar than Most Premium Ice Creams
Smoother and Creamier Texture (no ice crystals as in ice cream or ice milk.)
Old-Fashioned Homemade Taste (made fresh every day.)
Greater Density (less air whipped in, so it's much more filling than soft serve.)
Italian Ice is...
A Fruit flavored ice mix with a smooth texture (very small ice crystals)
A Sweet and Fat Free frozen product
Made without Dairy or Egg products
Made with Real Fruit Concentrate
The Consistency of a Slushie
As one would expect, Ethiopians do not eat many desserts, however, through
the influence of the Italian occupation in the early 1900's, Gelato and frozen
custard have made their way to the diets of Ethiopians in the larger towns and
cities. Along with the Pasta and Pizza houses, frozen Gelato custard is quite
common.
5. Ethiopia also produces several types of coffee, mangoes and blue berries by
value adding in the extracting flavors of these produces we flavor out the
frozen gelato custard in their respective likes.
Ethiopian market is the best growing market also by the consumption rate. To
meet the highest standards of excellence with superb service and product
offerings in a friendly, sparkling, and soothing atmosphere we are actively seek
out to respond the need of Ethiopian customers.
CULTURAL ANALYSIS:
Ethiopia, officially known as the Federal Democratic Republic of
Ethiopia, is a country located in the Horn of Africa. Ethiopia is the tenth
largest country in Africa, covering 439,580 square miles Variation in altitude
results in dramatic climatic variation.
Climate:
The predominant climate type is tropical monsoon, with wide topographic-
induced variation. Some peaks in the Simyen Mountains receive periodic
snowfall, while the average temperature of the Danakil is 120 degrees
Fahrenheit in the day time. The high central plateau is mild, with a mean
average temperature of 62 degrees Fahrenheit. The bulk of the rain in the
highlands falls in the major rainy season from mid-June to mid-September,
with an average of forty inches of rain during that season. A minor rainy
season occurs from February to April. The northeastern provinces of Tigre and
Welo are prone to drought, which tends to occur about once every ten years.
The remainder of the year is generally dry.
Economy:
The economy is based on agriculture, in which 85 percent of the population
participates. Ecological problems such as periodic drought, soil degradation,
deforestation, and a high population density negatively affect the agricultural
industry. Most agricultural producers are subsistence farmers living in the
highlands, while the population in the lowland peripheries is nomadic and
engages in livestock raising. Gold, marble, limestone, and small amounts of
tantalum are mined.
6. Major Industries:
After nationalization of the private sector before the 1974 revolution, an
exodus of foreign-owned and foreign-operated industry ensued. The growth
rate of the manufacturing sector declined. Over 90 percent of large scale
industries are state-run, as opposed to less than 10 percent of agriculture.
Under the EPRDF administration, there is both public and private industry.
Public industries include the garment, steel, and textile industries, while much
of the pharmaceuticals industry is owned by shareholders. Industry accounts
for almost 14 percent of the gross domestic product, with textiles,
construction, cement, and hydroelectric power constituting the majority of
production.
Trade:
The most important export crop is coffee, which provides 65 to 75 percent of
foreign exchange earnings. Ethiopia has vast agricultural potential because of
its large areas of fertile land, a diverse climate, and generally adequate rainfall.
Hides and skins are the second largest export, followed by pulses, oilseed,
gold, and chat, a quasi-legal plant whose leaves possess psychotropic qualities,
that is chewed in social groups. The agricultural sector is subject to periodic
drought, and poor infrastructure constrains the production and marketing of
Ethiopia's products. Only 15 percent of the roads are paved; this is a problem
particularly in the highlands, where there are two rainy seasons causing many
roads to be unusable for weeks at a time. The two biggest imports are live
animals and petroleum. The majority of Ethiopia's exports are sent to
Germany, Japan, Italy and the United Kingdom, while imports are primarily
brought in from Italy, the United States, Germany, and Saudi Arabia.
Customs and courtesies:
Greetings
Like most Semitic peoples, the Amhara place great emphasis on formal but
very courteous greetings to both friends and strangers. Shaking hands with
one or both hands, though more gently than the Western handshake, is
common between members of the same sex. Friends often embrace each other
formally but warmly. Members of opposite sex do not greet each other
physically.
7. Gestures
Pointing is generally considered rude. One never uses the left-hand to give or
receive items; the right-hand or both hands are used. It is an insult to refer to a
person as Galla, a name once used for the Oromo people. Trilling the tongue is
an expression of excitement or happiness.
Visiting
The Amharic home is a highly private and personal domain. Visits are not
made without invitation. If one is going to a home for the first time, a small gift
is in order. Visitors are expected to accept any refreshments or food offered.
Conversation should avoid highly personal topics and is best kept casual.
Eating
Amhara hosts take pride in offering guests the best meal they are capable of
providing, whether at a public restaurant or in the home. Visitors are often
given more food than they are able to eat. Leaving some food on the plate is
polite because it indicates the host’s ability to more than adequately provide
for guests. As is the custom in the Semitic world, food is eaten with the fingers
of the right hand (never the left).
Lifestyle:
Family
The Amharic family is strongly patriarchal, a pattern typical throughout
Ethiopia. Sons usually bring their brides to live with or near their father’s
family, and three or more generations in the male line frequently live under
one roof. Age is highly respected in Ethiopia, and the elderly are cared for by
their children. Only a small percentage (6 percent) of the population is older
than age 60. A woman’s duties and privileges are well-defined both within the
home and elsewhere, and women often lead sheltered lives. Families are very
private.
Food:
The Ethiopian diet includes lamb, goat, and fowl. Ethiopians do not usually eat
pork, turkey, or ham. Common foods include injera, fermented bread made of
teff flour, and wat, a spicy stew made with beef or chicken. Strict religious
dietary and fasting customs, especially for Muslims, also affect the menu. For
8. the many people who have limited access to food, a daily diet consists of grains
and relief supplies.
MARKET ANALYSIS:
The market we will engage in is the Ethiopian metropolitan area. The specific
market we will serve includes the university student population, schools, upper
class audience. The overall age demographics of the population break down as
follows:
13% over 65
25% between 45 and 64
28% between 25 and 44
12% between 18 and 24
23% of the population is under 18
Our local market has a mixed educational background - about half have
a college degree or higher. While most people (72%) drive to work, the high
concentration of downtown business and parking garages ensures steady foot
traffic past our location. Median annual household income (including single
people) is roughly Br33,000, and 63% of the population lives in single unit
structures (houses). These numbers tell us that we are situated in a
relatively educated, affluent area of the state, in a destination area of town.
TARGETED AUDIENCE:
Within this population, we are focusing on two separate groups with different
needs: 18-24 year olds, including students at the local university, and "first
families" - young adults (25-35) with children under 13.
18-24 year olds have disposable incomes which they tend to spend on
immediate gratification items, especially when those products have a prestige
or individuality value. The population around the downtown area is highly
populated by the 18-24 age demographic. We will also target "first families”.
They have limited entertainment dollars to spend each year, and our company
can offer them some family bonding time for approximately Br15, versus Br30
to Br40 for dinner or a movie. In both of these groups, we will aggressively
target young women, who tend to brand loyalty in food choices, and often turn
to indulgence foods in times of stress or celebration.
9. MARKET SEGMENTATION:
The potential customer groups for frozen gelato Custard are:
18-24 Year Olds
Our market research indicates about 38,000 potential customers in Ethiopia
who are within this age range. The target customer is going to be a part of the
"town and gown" niche: half college students and half local residents. They
have a tendency to spend more than they can afford on prestige products.
First Families
These are the grown children of the baby boomer population having children
of their own. Most of their children are not yet teens. By targeting this group,
we can not only generate a large volume of immediate business, but also create
long term customers in the children.
We also have found that families are eating out at ice cream and frozen yogurt
shops more, because such places are often cheaper than other restaurants,
allowing a parent to feed the family for under Br15. We are conservatively
estimating the population size as half of the local household population with
children under 18. Because the average family size is 2.92 people per
household, we estimate that population of all potential people in the
household population to be 55,852. We do expect some overlap between 18-24
year olds and the first families population.
Other
Our downtown location and increasing customer base will probably draw in
customers outside of our targeted groups, including those attending the
Saturday market, coming downtown to shop, or attending plays or musical
events. We conservatively estimate this third market segment at about 3,160
people (1% of the total local population).

passes through its life cycle. The price should be set at moderate level in order to attract

COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS:
COMPETITION AND BUYING PATTERNS:
In the frozen dessert industry, consumers make purchasing choices for a
number of reasons. Perceived quality of product is essential for consumers
going out to eat, because of the price premium they must pay. A gallon of
generic (or even name-brand) ice cream in the grocery store will cost about as
much as servings for one or two people at a scoop shop. Most of our
competitors have emphasized the high quality of their products to justify their
prices. Others, like Dairy Queen, tout convenience and low price, but they are
able to do this because they offer many other products, as well.
Consumers going out for a frozen dessert want consistent quality, a particular
ambience (which varies by market segment), and, recently, a statement about
their individuality through their food choices. Ben and Jerry's has responded
to these needs with appeals to socially and environmentally conscious
production; Cold Stone Creamery offers unparalleled "just for you"
customization and service; Baskin Robbins' famous "31 flavors" comes from
the vast array of choice consumers demand.
12. Among the Ethiopian population, many consumers have consistently shown a
commitment to local brands and locally-made products over national brands
and chains. In the local frozen dessert market, Prince Pückler's has benefited
from this preference by making its ice cream in the store from high-quality
local ingredients. We will play up the "made-daily-in-our-shop" aspects of both
of our products, as well as the fact that we are locally owned and operated by
people invested in the community.
We anticipate that our target markets will also be concerned with quality and
individuality, but in different ways. The 18-24 year olds are looking for good
tasting, prestige products. The price premium, in this case, is an advantage.
More particularly, as a former student, I have observed that university
students are constantly seeking "new" quaint, high-quality local businesses
which offer unique products their peers have not already adopted en masse.
Our frozen custards and Italian ices are just different enough from standard
premium ice creams that they will be familiar, yet "new." These consumers
want a place where they can socialize comfortably with each other, and can be
seen by their peers in a trendy place. They want to maximize product
customization to emphasize their sense of individuality, within comfortable
parameters; new combinations of familiar flavors work well with this group.
The young families in our targeted market are cost-conscious, and often health
conscious. The lower fat and sugar content of our products will appeal to
young parents seeking a "treat" for themselves and their children that don’t
come with a hefty price tag or unhealthy empty calories. These consumers
want a family-friendly place where spills and drips are not a catastrophe, but
with a comfortable atmosphere a bit more upscale than most fast food stores.
They want comfortable, familiar flavors for their children, who crave
predictability, and more adventurous flavor and ingredient options for
themselves.
COMPETITIVE EDGE:
Frozen Gelato Custard's has two competitive edges:
Rich and creamy, high class, low fat, frozen desserts.
Our friendly, neighborly approach to customers.
Both of these selling points will help us to achieve our overall goals of a steady
customer base with repeat sales. Our focus on personalized attention to our
customers, and involvement in local events and clubs, will set us apart from
our competition.
13. PROMOTION STRATEGY:
The 18-24 year olds go out for ice cream more than any other age
group. Within the 18-24 year old group, the "town and gown" niche is very
important, because they heavily populate the area surrounding the store's
location. They are reachable through music, specifically R&B, and they prefer
prestige products, which matches our choice of product offering.
The "first families" were chosen because they are a growing population, both
numerically and in their choice to go out for ice cream more often. They are an
easy group to market to because their lifestyle is very specific. They all have
young children, so tactics that are geared towards markets that relate to
children or to the children they may prove highly effective in generating trial
and sales.
We plan to reach the first families through their children. Frozen gelato
custard will sponsor a little league ball team and offer the players a free frozen
gelato Custard on days they win a game. This will draw them and their
families into the store.
We will also display the sample bench in parks n near residential areas.. We
will teach the children how we make frozen custard and Italian ice. We will let
each child make their own creation and hope they enjoy their time at our scoop
shop so much, that they convince their parents to bring them back.
MARKETING STRATEGY:
Frozen gelato Custard will use multiple methods to approach its target
markets. Since our most difficult task will be attracting customers for that first
tasting, we have a two-tiered approach. First, a mass mailing campaign will
create customer awareness and generate trial. This will include coupons and
our "Grand Opening" offer: with a coupon, your first dessert in April or May is
free. The initial cost of this offer will be more than offset by repeat sales later.
After this initial campaign, our marketing strategy will focus on our two target
markets separately.
For 18-24 year olds, we will distribute flyers on campus and at the bus
station. We will also seek permission to place fliers on the doors of apartment
rentals and apartment complexes. To further reach the "Town and Gown"
niche of this market, we will purchase radio ads on specific radio stations that
feature R&B music.
To reach the "first families" more effectively, we plan to sponsor events and
help out with local elementary schools and after school activities. Such plans
14. include: sponsoring a little league team; offering a tour of the shop to
elementary school students; and giving coupons and promotional information
to the children to bring their families in.
All of these marketing campaigns will be supplemented by ongoing "brand
awareness" campaigns, with advertisements in the local paper, interviews with
the college newspaper (as the owner is a graduate), and fliers posted at popular
local events. We will highlight our community service involvements as part of
our "good neighbor" approach to doing business in this area.
SALES STRATEGY:
Our sales strategy focuses first on providing the highest quality products and
services to our target customers. Once a customer enters our store, it is our job
to make sure their experience with us is enjoyable. Product offerings and
prices will be clearly posted behind the counter, and scoopers will be educated
about the ingredients and processes involved in each one, so they can answer
any and all customer questions. Customers can taste any product before
choosing. "Flavors of the day" will rotate throughout the entire set of flavor
options, and we will keep a running tally of flavor choices, correlated with
weather patterns for the day, to determine customer favorites. (While many
customers may prefer mango to banana, we will certainly sell more on sunny
days than rainy ones.)
In addition, our seating area will be comfortable, clean, and attractive, with
booster seats available. Our restroom will include a changing table, which
young families will appreciate. Customers can help themselves to free water
from a container on the side of the counter.
We will initially offer three sizes: 5oz., 7oz., 9oz. sized cups. Prices will be
based on size, with a 5oz serving priced at Br2.00, the 7oz. Br2.50, and the 9oz.
at Br3.00. There will be additional topping options at Br0.35 each, thus
increasing the sale price
SALES FORECAST:
Our sales will largely be determined by foot traffic in the area, the season of the
year, and current weather conditions. We estimate first year sales of
approximately Br66,840, Br97,760 in the second year, and Br113,402 in the
third year following this plan.
15. These sales forecasts are based on several real world observations. On a rainy
Friday afternoon in May, we observed 25 people an hour, make a purchase
from one of our future competitors located in a mall. During a weekend
evening in May, we observed 40 people an hour; make a purchase at an ice
cream shop in Eugene, OR. We chose to use the first observation (25) and cut
it in half for the approximate number of hourly customers we would have after
being in business for several months. We also assumed that there would be
a 60% increase in summer month sales over winter month sales. This
information was given to us by the manager of a local ice cream store chain.
Frozen Gelato Custard and Italian Ice plans to have a soft start, inviting only
family and friends over for the first few weeks. This will help the owners get
experience in managing a scoop shop and help them be better prepared for the
summer rush. Because we have little brand recognition, initial sales beyond
that are predicted to be low, averaging less than half of the observed hourly
rate over the year and less than a third of the observed rate during the start up
months. We expect our sales to follow a seasonal trend, peaking out in July
(the first year we assumed to still be building a customer base) and reaching a
low in December and January.
For the second year, we expect to see a total 46% increase in sales due to a
normal annual sales volume, and the dramatic difference between the monthly
average of the startup months and their counterparts in the second year. In the
third year, we expect a more conservative 16% increase in sales revenues.
Our sales forecast assumes a 10% increase in costs over the next year due to
the increase in dairy product and sugar prices, which is a reasonable
assumption given the current market data.
