1.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE


1.1.1 INTRODUCTION TO AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES TRADING
Agricultural commodities are staple crops and animals produced or raised on farms or
plantations. Most agricultural commodities such as grains, livestock, and dairy provide a
source of food for people and animals across the globe.
Some agricultural commodities have purely industrial applications. The building and furniture
industries use lumber from trees, while manufacturers in several sectors use latex from the
rubber tree.
Wool from sheep provides the fabric for the clothing industry and lanolin for skin- and hair-
care products.
Some agricultural commodities serve as both a source of food and an industrial ingredient.
Both humans and animals consume corn, but the commodity is also an important ingredient in
fuel production.
Similarly, humans eat the beef of cows, while a variety of industries use beef hide, fats, and
bones to create products.

1.1.2 WHY ARE AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES IMPORTANT


Virtually every living being on the planet depends on the agricultural industry in one way or
another.
We eat the grains, fruits, vegetables, and livestock that farmers produce; build the frames of
our houses from lumber; make clothes from cotton and wool; and ride in cars with tires made
from rubber.
Also, over 1.3 billion people – nearly 20% of the global population – work in farming. In
some regions of the world, such as South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, farming employs more
people than any other industry.
The global impact of the agricultural industry is enormous. According to the Food and
Agricultural Organization of the United Nations, the economic value of the agriculture
industry, in constant 2010 dollars, is more than $3 trillion.
With the world population expected to climb from 7.5 billion to 11.8 billion by 2100,
agricultural commodities are likely to play an even bigger role in the decades ahead.

1.1.3 MARKET OVERVIEW


Agriculture in the United Arab Emirates is projected to register a CAGR of 3.2% during the
forecast period (2021-2026).
As an impact of COVID-19, Agriculture in the United Arab Emirates suffered from farm
labour shortage during harvesting and input supply crisis, these in turn hampered the usual
production of the country. The repeated lockdowns and shutdowns of processing units affected
the supply chain and limited trade movements to other countries. Moreover, lack of storage
facilities led to the huge quality loss of the country's produces. As the country is renowned for
luxurious resorts and tourist places, due to the worlwide lockdowns, the demand for fresh
produce including cereals, fruits, and vegetables decreased rampantly during the COVID-19
pandemic.
The United Arab Emirates with high per capita food consumption is the most promising
agriculture market in the GCC region. The United Arab Emirates cereal production is
moderate until yet, but the country is still not fully self-sustain in agriculture production. The
United Arab Emirates is still dependent on imports for cereals.
According to FAO, in United Arab Emirates; cereals production in 2019 was 6,708.0 metric
ton which are very minimal. Similarly, fruits production accounted for 360,598.0 metric ton
and vegetables production stood at 315,098 ton in 2019. With the government been giving
priority to the production of fruits and vegetables, production is showing positive growth.
Hydroponics is emerging is this region due to the fact that this process requires less quantity of
water and no land or soil. All these factors are driving the growth of agriculture in the United
Arab Emirates.

1.1.4 KEY MARKET TRENDS

performance evaluation and develop questions to help supervisors get feedback on an
employee's interactions with them.

follow to all departments. This can be critical for businesses in highly regulated industries

3.6 LEGAL
The legal department oversees providing legal services and advice to the organization, its
divisions, and its workers. The department office deals with a wide range of legal issues. These
issues include business development, contract management, real estate transactions, consumer
claims against the firm for product damages and defects, litigation, employment law, sales and
leasing issues, debt collection, bankruptcy, case prosecution, and many more. All these actions
contribute to the Legal department's workflow.

3.7 TRADE FINANCE


Trade finance refers to the financial products and mechanisms used by businesses to assist
international trade and commerce. Trade financing enables and facilitates importers and exporters
to do business through trade. Trade finance is an umbrella word that refers to a variety of financial
instruments used by banks and businesses to facilitate trade transactions.
The purpose of trade finance is to add a third party to transactions to eliminate payment and supply
risks. Trade finance gives receivables or payment to the exporter in accordance with the
agreement, while the importer may be provided credit to fulfill the trade order. Trade finance is not
the same as traditional financing or credit issuance. General finance is used to control a buyer's
solvency or liquidity, whereas trade financing may not always reflect a buyer's lack of finances or
liquidity.
Instead, trade finance may be used to guard against the inherent risks of international commerce,
such as currency fluctuations, political instability, nonpayment concerns, or the creditworthiness of
one of the parties involved.
Without trade financing, a firm may fall behind on payments and lose a major client or supplier,
which might have long-term consequences. Having alternatives such as revolving credit facilities
and accounts receivable factoring may assist businesses not only deal abroad, but also in times of
financial difficulty.

3.8 IT
The IT department manages the installation and upkeep of a company's computer network
infrastructure. This may simply take a single IT person, or in the case of bigger enterprises, a team
of individuals working to keep the network running properly.
The IT staff must examine and install the required hardware and software to keep the network
running smoothly. Because this entails working within a departmental budget for network devices
and software, the IT department must ensure that the equipment it invests in will ideally fulfill the
needs of the firm without going over budget.

3.3 RISK
The process of discovering, analyzing, and controlling threats to an organization's capital and
profitability is known as risk management. These dangers or dangers might arise from several
sources, such as financial instability, legal liability, strategic management failures, accidents, and
natural disasters.
IT security threats and data-related hazards, as well as risk management measures to mitigate
them, have risen to the top of the priority list for digital businesses. As a result, firms' methods for
recognizing and controlling risks to their digital assets, such as confidential business data, a
customer's personally identifiable information (PII), and intellectual property, are increasingly
being included in risk management plans.
A company may save money and preserve its future by developing a risk management strategy and
considering the many potential risks or events before they occur. This is because a solid risk
management strategy will assist a firm in developing processes to prevent possible risks, mitigate
their effect if they occur, and deal with the consequences.
Organizations can be more confident in their business decisions if they can recognize and handle
risk. Furthermore, effective corporate governance rules that are primarily focused on risk
management can assist a firm in meeting its objectives.

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

lOMoARcPSD|13979180

My summer internship began in the Human Resources Department of Midstar. An introduction


session with the manager describing the fundamental operation of the organization was beneficial.
They discussed the numerous Midstar units and the parameters within which I was supposed to
work.

Based on the way operations at Midstar are structured, I have grown to recognize the need of
having complete systems in place for every process and scenario to ensure that time is spent
productively: all systems were set out in black and white.

The value of teamwork: Everyone in the team, as well as the department, was exceedingly kind in
offering any form of support that helped the team develop and prosper.

Communication and timely feedback play a critical part in an organization: There were frequent
feedback meetings that were both instructive and encouraging.

Personally, I believe:

✓ I have improved my time management and interpersonal skills by managing the daily tasks
assigned to me and my project while also participating in meetings, reporting, and feedback
sessions.
✓ I have tremendously benefited from the chance to network.
✓ The internship provided me with the opportunity to connect with the organization's most
top executives. My interactions were not limited to my team; I had the option to approach
people from other teams for information, which allowed me to meet a variety of
individuals. I have made important connections with folks from whom I have learned a lot.
✓ Interacting with sharp minds has really aided my knowledge of company culture.
✓ I have become more conscious of my societal responsibilities.
✓ Since reports for a university project and an organization are not the same, I was astonished
by how much I learnt while writing the report. As an example: A 140-page report, the
graph detailing is expected to be highly detailed, and the colors used for formatting are
expected to be consistent.

SUGGESTIONS/ RECOMMENDATIONS

25 | P a g e

Downloaded by Vidyashree S (vidyashree0428@gmail.com)


lOMoARcPSD|13979180

 The development of an integrated information system for the entire firm to reduce paper
effort. It also assists the organization in reducing its workforce count by eliminating the person
whose primary responsibility is to coordinate and send information to another department. It
helps the management to have information database and creation of an integrated database
rather than everyone maintaining their own database. It will also help the company to automate
certain jobs and reduce the work of employee thereby enabling to utilize the human capital
more effectively by using their intelligence and skill set.
 Midstar is a corporation that works long hours. This demanding work schedule necessitates the
inclusion of specific leisure activities to help employees unwind. The fact that the workplace
is on the outskirts of the city also makes a significant impact; there is nothing nearby that could
be considered a respite from the monotony of the job. Thus, some activities such as indoor
games, a club room, and so on might be introduced into the company, providing employees
with a break from their lengthy working days.
 They should guarantee that intra-departmental meetings are held on a weekly or monthly
basis to discuss and resolve minor and big issues as a group effort. It also readily inspires
employees and resolves conflicts between them.
 They also must specify its organizational goals for each employee to evaluate and reward
their work performance. It also aids in understanding each employee's contribution to the
company's growth.
 They should modify their website on a regular basis to keep their audience informed about
their company and should include an explanation of the company. They should also be
informed about innovation, quality, and infrastructure. They can also bring the information and
design up to date with the current market.
 Giving employees the privacy, they require to accomplish their tasks is a modest price to pay
for a successful, joyful working environment that can yet be engaging and collaborative.
Isolationism does not imply privacy. Employers can strike a balance between the two worlds to
produce a working environment that is consistently capable of achieving desired results
without wasting resources, time, or energy, and that is simply smart business at its finest.

As students, we are always anxious about stepping into the corporate world. Leaving our comfort
zone is never easy. But interning at Midstar dialed down all my worries. The internship undertaken
at Midstar Management Ltd. was for a period for six weeks. Since I had never interned or worked
in such a professional institution before, I learnt how to translate my theoretical knowledge onto
practical workspaces.

On my first day, I was given a formal brief about the company, their functionality, and policies.
What I loved the most was how welcoming and kind- hearted the entire team is. My seniors
addressed even my smallest query with superlative patience and support. I was fortunate to have
interacted with the top management, learning from their experiences and skills.

As a Midstar HR intern, I experienced an open, helpful, disciplined working atmosphere with


procedures in place to make learning and productivity more conducive. I learnt a lot of important
lessons during this internship, such as the significance of a firm and a job, the significance of the
people with whom you work, and the significance of enjoying whatever you do. I was also lucky
enough to be a part of the event that happened at the organization, through which I learned a lot of
new things like how crucial and important the role of an HR is in organizing an event and in a
company.

This internship would benefit me in the future since it would allow me to better adapt to a
company, understand my profession, and, most importantly, help me find a better position for
myself.

With every passing day, I was more excited to come to work and began the work assigned. I
consider myself very fortunate to have been provided this opportunity. I am glad for the
opportunity to witness Midstar Management Ltd in action. I am very grateful to my superiors at the
organization for taking such an active interest in my development and ensuring that my time here
was jam-packed with valuable learning.

Finally, I would want to thank Christ University for providing me with the chance to participate in
such a valuable internship. This internship, I feel, has aided my overall development, and will
benefit me in the future.

LEARNING AND HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEK:

My first day of internship at Midstar Commodity Management Ltd was on


25.04.2021. The first week of my internship, I learnt about how the
organization works and what the structure of the department is. I learnt about
the different process and departments the company has and how they work. I
was also introduced to everyone working at the organization.

I was assigned tasks such as making feedback forms, generating reports,


research on topics, formatting documents. I have also learnt to work with
formulas and several other things about excel was also introduced to everyone
working at the organization.

This week, I learned how an organization operates in the real world, not just in
theory. I was able to apply my theoretical knowledge in real-life situations. I
have never interned or been a member of such a professional corporate body
before, so it has been a week of learning for me.

My superiors have been very helpful and patient in explaining the mission to
me and answering my questions. The duties I have been assigned are not
entirely menial, but they are typical of what the employees do daily.

new details in my third week of internship.

I gained an understanding on to the company’s vision, core values and the


mission after they explained it to me. The HR related work I did in this specific
week was yet again how to make reports and how to make graphs for the
specific reports and what all information are supposed to be shown for the
graph.

Since reports for a school project and an organization is different, I was


surprised on the new things l learned while making the report. For example: A
140 pages report, the detailing for the graphs is supposed to be very specific,
the colours used for the formatting is supposed to be same.

LEARNING AND HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEK:

My last week of internship at Midstar Commodity Management Ltd was on


30.05.2021. Like the first five weeks of my internship, I learnt a lot of new
details in my sixth week of internship.

In my last week of internship, my task was to create online forms related to


many topics like clearance form, employment application form, training form,
interview assessment form and internship interview questionnaire.

At the same time, my other task for the week was to write a testimony about my
journey at the Midstar company and make a report or a presentation on the
tasks which I did during the internship.

Much as the previous five weeks, I was able to put my theoretical knowledge
into practice.

Everyone wished me well for the future on the last day of my internship, and
my superiors spoke greatly of me and were extremely happy with my work for
the firm. I said my goodbyes to everyone and walked out of the office.

As this was my first internship, going to Midstar was beneficial and taught me a
lot of valuable lessons, such as the importance of a company and a career, the
importance of the people you work with, and the importance of enjoying
whatever you do. Midstars employees were polite and helpful in every aspect.

Coming to work and executing the duties they assigned me was a lot of fun for
me. I aim to complete more internships in the future to advance my profession.
