A green supply chain is a concept that integrates environmental aspects in the supply chain system. This study aims to identify the value chain stages affecting the environment and to determine the level of economic impact on the jackfruit chips value chain at CV XYZ. This research used Value Chain Operations Reference (VCOR) method to analyze value chain activities. Carbon emissions and total costs were calculated at the build, acquire, and fulfill stages from suppliers and enterprises. The analysis results showed that the highest environmental impact was at the build stage which produces carbon emissions of 133,314.8 kg CO2. The frying process contributed the highest carbon emission, which was 117,600 kg CO2. CV XYZ was in the intolerable region condition in the Global Impact matrix. The resulting carbon footprint is 16.84 kg CO2/kg with a unit cost of 0.32 €/kg. The recommendation strategy was substituting firewood with liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) to lower carbon emissions by up to 40%.

Recently, business of organic vegetables in YogyakartaYregion has been growing substantially. It is characterized by the formation of a new supply chain system called Jogjakarta organic market supply chain (POJOG) in addition to modern retail supply chain system that is already available i.e. Organic Farmers of Merapi (TOM). The different characteristics of these two supply chain systems allow the consumers to shift their preferences from modern retail supply chain to organic market supply chain when buying organic vegetables. Therefore, analysis of the performance and competitiveness of these two different supply chain systems is important for improvement of organic vegetable supply chain in the future. Based on the results of supply chain analysis, it was found that the added value obtained by modern retail supply chains TOM was 58.44%, while that obtained by organic market supply chain POJOG was 38.97%. The marketing margin ratio obtained by such players in modern retail supply chain system as farmers, TOM and Super Indo were 1.29, 1.91 and1.18 respectively, whereas those obtained by farmers and POJOG on the organic market supply chain were 2.10 and 1.29 respectively. In terms of marketing efficiency, Jogjakarta organic market performed better, accounting for 58%, more than double of those performed by modern retail supply chain that only accounted for 26%. Keywords: Value Chain Analysis; Organic Vegetables; Yogjakarta; Marketing Margin

Shrimp is an important fisheries resource in the national economy of Bangladesh. It is considered as an exportable item and in each year it shared about 2.75% of the total export earning of Bangladesh. The present study was conducted to examine the marketing system and value chain, and marketing efficiency of shrimp marketed both in domestic and export market. For this study a total of 182 stakeholders (market intermediaries) were selected where shrimp farmers, export oriented farms, depot owners and other market participants and selling agents were included. Data were collected for the period of 2012-13. The study revealed that 80% shrimp is exported and rest 20% is consumed in the local market. Usually shrimp is exported through exporting agencies and firms. Considering all kinds of market, the average gross marketing margin and profit of shrimp in the local market were Tk 171.00/kg and Tk 134.04/kg respectively but for export market, the corresponding amounts were Tk 142.76/kg and Tk 89.51/kg respectively. Shrimp is sold both in domestic and overseas market and accordingly major supply chain and value chain were identified. Shrimp farmers and exporting agencies supply shrimp to ultimate consumers through supply chain. Actually value chain actors added value at each level of market. After processing and adding value, domestic and overseas consumers purchase 1 kg of shrimp at Tk 55.00 and Tk 142.76 respectively. Marketing efficiency was studied only for domestic market. It revealed that shorter supply channel resulted efficient marketing of shrimp where the shrimp producer received the higher percentages of sales price provided by the retailer in consumer market.J.
