Public distribution system (PDS) is the lifeline of food security in India which involves provisioning of foodgrains. To manage this supply chain more efficiently, an effective performance management system is a pre-requisite. This paper utilises the performance objectives-productivity approach to ...
During 1991-1992, fieldwork was carried out in Kerala and Karnataka States to assess the Public Distribution System (PDS) in South India. The aim was to explore how the PDS works in reality, who profits, who is excluded, and why this is the case. The effects of the PDS on consumption...
