supply chain (see Exhibit TN-1).

draw J P Landgoed’s agriculture supply chain and share their
illustrations with the class. To add depth to the discussion, the instructor can highlight which supply chain




e
activities are labour-intensive and which are mechanized and consider the benefits and drawbacks of each.

J P Landgoed does not automate picking and packaging, which creates jobs (in a province with a high
unemployment rate) and contributes to workers’ skill development. However, this might lead to incorrect

pruning that could have adverse effects if export destination standards are not met. The washing and sorting
process mechanization adds efficiency, but is problematic in a country that faces continual electricity
blackouts through load shedding activities by utility suppliers. Finally, the instructor can point to the logistic
