description |
Purpose – Since middle of 1960, the clove production has continually and
significantly decreased due to some problems and challenges which include financial
ones. The financial intermediaries such as banks, cooperatives and micro-enterprises
provide micro-financing to the farmers with high interest rates along with collateral
requirements. The numerous programmes, measures and policies adopted by the
relevant parties to find out the solutions to the dwindling clove production have failed.
Therefore, this paper tries to identify the appropriate model to address the financial
challenges in agricultural sector in Zanzibar.
Design/methodology/approach – We will review and examine several existing
financial models and will identify the issues and challenges of the current financial
models and will propose an appropriate Islamic financing model.
Findings- The numerous programmes, measures and policies adopted by the relevant
parties to find out the solutions to the dwindling clove production have failed. This
study, therefore, proposed a Waqf-Muzara’ah- Supply Chain model (WMSCM) to
address the financial challenge. Partnership arrangement is also suggested in the
model to mitigate the issues of high interest rates and collateral that constrains the
financial ability of the farmers and their agricultural output.
Originality/value - The contribution of the agricultural sector to the economic
development of Zanzibar Islands is considerable. As one of the important agricultural
sectors, the clove industry was the economic backbone of the government of Zanzibar.
This study is believed to be a pioneering work; hence it is the first study that
investigates empirically the challenges facing the clove industry in Zanzibar. |
