including
the funding
of salaries
of the
industry’s
employees
from the
general
fund.

of Agro-
Industries
should
retain its
independent
unit of the
BuCor

operations and
expansions of
prisons agro-
industry.

wide discretion
in entering joint
ventures

ascertained by
the Bucor’s legal

There should be
a consideration
on the part of
the (workers)
inmates in terms
of the
production

It may place the
government and
the inmates at
disadvantage
Private sector participation

7. Strength Weakness Opportunity Threat

uniform
procedure for
proper
valuation,
recording and
reporting of
agro-industrial
product
acquired or
produced by
the prisons and
penal farms.
There is a lack
of responsible

They should
check possible
underreporting
of farm and
shop produce by
putting a floor
on production
volume.
It may result
from pilferage
