Several factors in the value chain of Forage, such as labor cost, logistics, and energy costs are driving up the procurement costs. Additionally, engagement of suppliers who are still operating with outdated assets, technologies and processes is also increasing the cost for buyers. Many suppliers are trying to enhance the efficiencies and productivity within their operations through investment in new technologies and an overhaul of processes. Some of these initiatives are likely to influence their cost structure adversely till the time they recover their investments. However, a successful implementation of these programs can benefit them with a better cost proposition in the longer run. The global industry has seen a gradual increase in labor cost due to several factors, such as shortage of a trained workforce, increase in minimum wages, regulations around employee benefits and declining appeal for what have been traditionally called unskilled jobs. As the employee expenses increase, suppliers are compelled to pass some of this increase to their buyers by charging higher prices. As a result, category managers need to closely monitor the Forage procurement trends and identify changes required in their procurement environment for the category.
