Agricultural sector is the leading sector in Kenya and majority of the rural population derive their livelihood from it. Most of them are engaged in maize production. In 2009, Uasin Gishu District produced 3.29 million bags of maize, which is 14.3% of the national output of 23 million bags. With increasing cost of production, there is need for farmers to access and use credit financing. Despite availability of credit meant to boost maize production, production in the area has stagnated hence the need to establish why this is so and determine what needs to be done to reverse the situation. The results from the study show that the average maize yield in the district is 31.83 bags per hectare and that only 30.56% of the farmers used credit financing in the last 10 years. Regression analysis relating maize output to cost of production showed a good fit, though chi-square analysis of farmers perceptions on usage of credit financing, showed that there was no relationship between credit financing and maize production. The study evaluated the effects of agricultural financing on maize production and it is hoped that the findings would be useful to policy makers and further research. ····· 1036120894

Decoupling Points Selection in Supply Chains

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
As consumer desire for customized products and services at affordable prices and shorter lead-times continue to grow, supply chain operators are facing increasing challenges of becoming both physically efficient (to enable the delivery of low cost) and flexible (to enable market-responsiveness). In order to meet these challenges, organizations are devising supply chain operation strategies that enable them to gain the benefits of physical efficiency of mass production and the customer focus of mass customization. A key to gaining these benefits lies in the selection of appropriate decoupling points in the supply chain. Decoupling points lie on the push-pull boundary. The existing approaches to selection of supply chain decoupling points are not systematic and primarily based on the judgment of the practitioners. This book addresses this gap by presenting a knowledge model (in the form of a network of rules) to aid in the selection of decoupling points in supply chains. Knowledge-based techniques bring together knowledge from the viewpoints of multiple domain experts. Results derived from applying the knowledge model to three case studies show similar trends to published literature. ····· 1036120684

Negotiations Success and Leadership Style

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Both leadership and negotiations constitute key success factors for organisations. Previous studies on leadership suggest that leadership effectiveness differentiates successful organisations from others. Equally, negotiations success constitutes a key distinguishing factor separating developed countries from the developing and under-developed ones. Available literature and previous research on leadership and negotiations reveals a historical tendency to deal with these topics separately. Thus, while the two topics have each been researched extensively, the number of studies dealing with leadership and negotiations as concomitant variables in the same study is limited. This book reports on a leadership style and negotiation success investigation involving negotiators. The multiple regression results from the analysis of variance (ANOVA and MANOVA), and other multivariate tests revealed leadership style as a strong predictor of negotiations success. ····· 1036120668
