salted products (30.2 per cent), beverages (37.8 percent) and hot pepper powder (46.8 percent). Total sales value of processed food products is W= 127.6 billion, and has been increasing since 1993. A 23-percent growth rate was recorded between 1994 and 1996. The insolvent operation rate also decreased from 45 percent in 1995 to 36 percent in 1996. However, a number of processing companies continue to suffer business difficulties. Major investment has been made in beverage processing, but 60 percent of the factories are insolvent. (b) Other Rural Food-processing Enterprises Current rural food-processing enterprises are characterized by partnership operations with farmers and fishermen in village units. Their main products are derived from traditional food processing (Table 4). Table 4.

Table 5 summarizes the current state of rural food processing by product and operation. There is a tendency to concentrate investments on certain commodities, such as salted products (19.96 percent) and tea products (18.21 percent), because markets for those commodities are easy to enter. Also, those products do not require specialized labor. In terms of investment, enterprises with more than W= 1 billion account for only 6 percent of the total. In contrast, enterprises with under W= 250 million and W= 100 million account for 58 percent and 20 percent, respectively, of total investment. Distribution of employees shows that only 6.8 percent of the enterprises have more than 30 employees, while 71.7 percent and 49.9 percent of the enterprises have under 10 and 5 employees, respectively. Because most enterprises are small-scale operations in terms of size and employment, problems exist that are associated with the treatment of polluted water, product quality management and the accounting process. PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH RURAL FOOD-PROCESSING ENTERPRISES Initial Problems Sufficient examination is rarely made of a proposed business, although a feasibility study of a new business is necessary to ensure a successful outcome. A major cause of insolvency has been identified as the failure to undertake a feasibility study in the first stage of setting up a new business. This fact implies that many processing enterprises have launched their businesses with investment problems existing right from the start.
