Experience has shown that a basic prerequisite for successful mechanization
of the agricultural sector requires a well-functioning supply chain. To draw
lessons for achieving this goal, the FAO Rural Infrastructure and
Agro-Industries Division commissioned three mechanization supply chain case
studies. The studies were conducted in Kenya, Paksitan and Brazil, and the
information contained in them has been used as the basis for the analysis
presented in this Technical Report. The main recommendations of this title
are aimed at policy-makers in the public sector, although there is plenty to
interest other stakeholders, especially machinery suppliers and mechanization
service providers. However, the ultimate beneficiaries are small- and
medium-scale farmers who are the recipients of the services provided.
