Abstract

The objectives of this research were to 1) study the activities at the upstream, midstream, and downstream of the agricultural product supply chain based on the local identity of young smart farmers, and 2) to develop the supply chain management capabilities of processed agricultural products based on the local identity of young smart farmers. The study was qualitative research. Key informants comprised 32 Ban Pwoagsoong organic asparagus community enterprise members and government officers. The data were collected through focus group discussions and in-depth interviews. Additionally, the content analysis was conducted on the data. Research findings indicated that the supply chain management capabilities of locally distinctive agricultural processed products for the Ban Pwoagsoong organic asparagus community enterprise could be seen in 1) transforming fresh asparagus into asparagus powder, ready for consumption, and 2) designing logistics packaging that considered factors related to product damage, transportation and distribution cost savings, product manufacturing, consumer convenience, and communication with stakeholders in the transportation system.
