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.

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.
