operations and deals with farming, processing and manufacturing, packaging, and distributing agricultural products.
MANUFACTURING- this is the process of converting raw materials, components, or parts into finished goods that meet a
customer’s expectations. There are many laws and regulations that govern the manufacturing industry. The business will be
required to conform to all the licensing bodies may it be the government or the local authority’s requirements. Manufacturing
industries can be further divided into two major industry groups based on the weight of output-heavy or light manufacturing. The
heavy manufacturing industry groups typically include textile manufactures and fabricated metal and steel products. In contrast,
light manufacturing is composed of relatively easier-to-transport products such as household food products and plastic products.
