It discusses policy considerations and presents options for establishment, management and operation of reserves. Issues related to the ownership, management structure, size and composition of reserves are discussed. Operational procedures and practices are suggested. The publication should be of value to government officials engaged in marketing and food security and in the management of national grain and food security reserve agencies, as well as to development practitioners. |
