Consulting Area: Development Management – Agriculture and Livelihood Development
Understanding the full journey of a product — from production to consumption — is essential for improving competitiveness and income. At PDCC, we carry out Value Chain Studies of Specific Enterprises to help farmers, agribusinesses, and development partners identify opportunities, bottlenecks, and solutions within agricultural value chains.
Our value chain studies cover:
Mapping the value chain – analysing all actors from producers, processors, traders, and exporters to consumers.
Identifying market opportunities – highlighting profitable enterprises and emerging market demands.
Spotting gaps and constraints – uncovering challenges such as poor infrastructure, limited finance, weak market linkages, or lack of quality standards.
Recommending interventions – proposing practical solutions to strengthen weak points and improve overall efficiency.
Promoting inclusivity – ensuring women, youth, and marginalised groups benefit from value chain participation.
These studies provide the evidence development programmes and farmer organisations need to make better investment decisions, increase competitiveness, and enhance livelihoods.
