a) Storage:

– The need for storage to allow a smooth, and as far as possible, uninterrupted flow of product into the market.

–  Especially agriculture in Nepal, supply often exceeds demand in the immediate post-harvest period.

– The storage function is one of balancing supply and demand.

b) Transportation:

–  It requires consideration of alternative routes and types of transportation, with a view to achieving timeliness, maintaining produce quality and minimizing shipping costs.

– Effective transport management is critical to efficient marketing.
