Overcoming Agri-Supply Chain Barriers with Khaity

Agriculture supply chain management involves planning, coordinating, and managing the flow of agricultural products, goods, and services from the point of origins i.e., farms and agricultural producers to the final consumers. Effective supply chain management plays a vital role in reducing crop loss, improving product quality, and lowering the overall costs farmers incur on transportation, logistics, and related activities.

However, there are significant gaps in Pakistan's agricultural supply chain that need to be addressed to enhance its efficiency and effectiveness.

Khaity is leading the way in tackling these challenges by providing innovative solutions that create a seamless experience for both farmers and consumers. Based on our research, here are some critical issues that need immediate attention and how we are catering to it:?

Infrastructure Limitations

Many regions in Pakistan lack adequate transportation and storage infrastructure, which hampers the efficient movement of agricultural products. Poor road conditions and high transportation costs, lack of storage facility create significant challenges, especially for small-scale and average farmers. These costs often consume the majority of their profits, leaving them with financial losses.

Solution

Khaity provides practical solutions to these challenges. We offer reliable transport services that save farmers from incurring excessive expenses and minimize the risk of crop loss. With Khaity, farmers can rely on us when it comes to buying, transporting and selling their crops directly to the required industries.

In addition, we provide farmers access to a robust network of industries, ensuring they can sell their crops at the best possible prices. Khaity also offers advanced storage facilities, enabling farmers to store their produce during the off-season and sell it later when prices are higher.

Limited Market Knowledge and Accessibility

Many farmers lack the knowledge and resources to access suitable markets, often leading to poor decisions when purchasing products for their crops. This results in crop losses and the misuse of agricultural inputs. Additionally, farmers are generally unaware of the rules, regulations, tariffs, and trade barriers associated with international exports.?

These barriers can hinder the movement of goods, increase costs, and, in the worst cases, lead to the rejection of their produce due to non-compliance with regulations.

Solution

Khaity is dedicated to simplifying trade procedures and minimizing tariffs on agricultural products. Through our expert advisory services and premium-quality inputs, we promote farmers with easy access to markets. Instead of traveling long distances in search of high-quality and reliable products, farmers can now receive all essential agricultural supplies delivered directly to their doorsteps.

Khaity also specializes in facilitating international trade for farmers by utilizing its extensive market knowledge and strong global networks. We ensure farmers comply with international quality standards and maintain supply chain efficiency, enabling seamless access to global markets.

Seasonality and Perishability

Agri-logistics face significant challenges due to the seasonality and perishability of crops. Many crops have limited shelf lives and require timely transportation to prevent spoilage. Coordinating transportation, storage, and distribution becomes even more challenging during peak harvesting seasons.

Solution

Khaity offers comprehensive agri-logistics solutions, including advanced cold storage facilities to extend crop shelf life, efficient transportation to minimize spoilage, and streamlined coordination of supply chain operations. During peak harvest seasons, our scalable logistics handle increased volumes seamlessly, preventing delays, bottlenecks, and wastage. By integrating transportation, storage, and distribution, Khaity ensures farmers maintain the quality of their produce while maximizing profitability.
