Definition |
refers to the overall quantity or count of processed goods that are manufactured or made within Vanuatu during a one-year period. These products undergo some form of processing or transformation, such as refining, manufacturing, packaging, or other value-added activities. The purpose of producing these local products is twofold:
The “Total number” in this context represents the aggregate count of these processed local products. It could be measured in terms of individual units, such as kilograms, liters, pieces, or any other appropriate unit of measurement based on the nature of the product. The timeframe considered for this measurement is “per annum,” which means it represents the production and processing of local products over a one-year period. |
Concept |
To find the total number of processed local products produce annually for domestic consumption and export so that Vanuatu can look for ways to increase by 10% production and processing niche commodities by 2020. |
Rationale |
To depict total number of processed local products produced per anum for domestic consumption and export. So that production of processed local products must increase by 10% by the year 2020. And therefore, enabling a competitive business environment and creating more opportunities and employments for entrepreneurs throughout Vanuatu. |
Method of Computation |
For products intended for export, trade data can be utilized. Customs department and statistics trade organizations maintain records of exports, including the quantity or volume of goods shipped to different destinations. By analyzing this trade data, you can determine the total number of processed local products exported during a given period. |
