Optimizing Agricultural Freight Flow from Farm to Fork

Optimizing Agricultural Freight Flow from Farm to Fork

The complex and fragmented nature of agricultural supply chains is particularly evident in countries like India and China, where farms tend to be small. In this video, Dr. Subhro Mitra from the UNT Dallas School of Business leads a discussion on optimizing agricultural freight flow from farm to fork.

Dr. Mitra discusses how brokers often take a large share of the profits in agricultural supply chains. In fact, farmers could actually earn more by dealing directly with processors, bypassing intermediaries. The talk also emphasizes the use of advanced logistics and data analysis to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and increase farmer profits in the supply chain.
