Abstract:

Stakeholder mapping is a collaborative process of research, debate, and discussion that is drawn from multiple perspectives to determine a key list of stakeholders across the entire spectrum. The first step in the mapping process is to identify the stakeholders. After the identification of the stakeholders, further analysis was made to understand their relevance and the perspective they offered to the paddy processing chain. The stakeholders were prioritised based on list of criteria developed by Business for Social Responsibility (BSR). The paddy processing chain comprised of different stages and the stakeholders of the chain were identified from sourcing of paddy to delivery of end product (rice). The stakeholder analysis revealed the importance of various stakeholders in the paddy processing chain in Southern Tamil Nadu with respect to their expertise and value contribution. The analysis also captured the nature and degree of relationship among the identified stakeholders.
