Vertical coordination for optimization of the vegetable supply chain

This study is based on the concept of the vertically coordinated supply chain to produce value for the stake holders in the vegetables supply chain. The primary aim of this study is to measure the impact of vertical coordination concerning to vegetable supply chain industry. The research is descriptive in nature and Delphi technique has been applied to measure the impact of vertical coordinated supply chain on vegetable industry, demand-supply gap and price gap for vegetables, has been obtained through expert opinion. Neural Network Model is used for the prediction of the importance of different variables. The conclusion is based on the 16-6-14 structure study on independent variables-hidden factor of process-dependent variables or the predictors respectively. The outcome of this research is for the consumer in terms of price and beneficial for the farmers engaged in vegetable cultivation. Largely it can support all the intermediary participants of vegetable supply chain.
