Benefits of MEX

 
Benefits of MEXThere is a need to move agriculture to a market system of economy. This requires agriculture to be organized just like the industrial and service sectors of Nepalese economy. In addition, flow of corporate and institutional investment in the sector at present is negligible.
The need to facilitate the flow of easy credit to the farmers as a priority, through the use of warehouse receipts to get pledge financing from banks. In a nutshell, there is a need to integrate production, storage, transportation, trading, financing and marketing of agricultural product in Nepal. MEX would bring about the converge of large-scale processors, traders, and farmers along with banks.
