Abstract:
The current investigation was carried out in four major maize growing districts of Telangana with a sample of 160 maize growers and 80 stakeholders. Value chain management involves various activities and corresponding actors who have some stake or add value at every stage of value chain. Inventory management is an essential part of supply/value chain systems that plans, implements and controls the storage, forward and reverse flow of goods between the producer and a consumer. Medium level of inventory management was observed by majority of the maize growers, whereas in case of other stakeholders more than half were reported with high level of inventory management.
