- W2423173610 abstract "This study aims to investigate the effect of supplier development efforts on the performance of small-scale agricultural enterprise. The study recognizes the important role small-scale agricultural enterprise plays in agrarian based economy in supplying food for domestic use as well as raw material for industrial use in agro-processing firms. As essential partners in the agri-food supply chain small scale agricultural enterprise enable agro-processing firms, the capacity to deliver the expectation of their consumer not only in satisfying their needs but also to compete competitively with respect to cost, quality timely delivery. Supplier development efforts helps the buyer establish a relationship within which they can identify and develop the performance capacity of their suppliers in order to be able to deliver superior customer value at less cost to the supply chain as whole. Simple random sampling technique was used to collect the primary data from 142 respondents. Descriptive statistics, independent t-test and One-Way ANOVA were used to analyze the data. The results show there is a significant difference in effectiveness in cost reduction by sourcing inputs from different sources. Further the independent samples t-test results confirms that there is a significant increase in revenue generated by farmers as they adopt new farming methods as well as use of the right output enhancing inputs. It was also note there is a mutual benefits derived from trust in the relationship between the buyers and the suppliers (farmers). Farmers should be encouraged to form groups through which they can enjoy economies of scale when bulk sourcing of inputs, transporting to the farm, training and when delivering their produce to the market. Further, buyers should strengthen their relationships with the farmers to transition the rural subsistence production to market oriented production." @default.
