Prefatory Part of Report
1.1 Origin of the Report
This internship report is to be prepared as a mandatory requirement for completion of BBA program at Institute of Business Administration, Jahangirnagar University. A student has to go through a three-month internship project which enables a student to understand and experience the real business operations of an organization.

1.2 Background of the Assessment
The amount of char land varies season to season, year to year shaped by normally flood water, river erosion and other natural events. The main char areas are in Jamalpur, Sherpur, Bogra, Shirajganj, Kurigram, and in Gaibandha.
The major economic activities of char dwellers are related to agriculture and cattle. Since the practice of choosing crop pattern is dominated by food security and the farmers do not know of any major cash crop that can be cultivated in char areas, they do not have enough cash to survive when there is no work or opportunity to work as daily labor. The land type and weather is very suitable for maize cultivation in char areas. Maize is a tropical/ sub-tropical crop. It grows best in sandy-loam soil with medium to medium-high topography (maize cannot survive water logging) in arid to semi arid temperate condition.
Maize is a relatively a new crop in Bangladesh with a time span of 19 years. Bangladesh grows moderate quantities of maize which do not meet domestic demand. However there is a huge potential for production increase. As part of assessing the maize sector in char areas, this report is to identify the root causes of constraints and opportunities on maize’s backward value chain development in Northern char areas of Bangladesh and also assess plausible recommendations in the maize input market.
1.3 Objectives of the Assessment
The broad objective of the assignment is to develop input market development intervention strategies for the maize sector based on field study in the chars of Bogra, Gaibandha and Sirajgonj districts.
Specific objectives of

    The southeastern grasslands provide a better environment for animal life and for some kinds of crops. Many wild animals inhabit the plains in this region--elephants, giraffes, rhinoceros, antelopes, zebras, and lions. The people in this area have long been expert cattle raisers and hunters. Tea, coffee, cotton, cashew nuts, and tobacco are some of the main products grown in this region. Fishing also provides some food and income for people along the coast. The population here is less concentrated in cities and towns than in the north, but tends to be denser in areas where adequate rainfall and fertile soil make farming possible.…

    The agricultural areas of UrCity are being forced further out into the desert basin due to the suburb expansion. There is an increased demand for fertile lands to raise animals and crops. As the city is growing and pushing out into the desert basin the temperature to the grow the crops in will be hotter and less fertile ("What Is Agriculture?", 2005). There is a decreasing of the water supply because of the area being a desert area. This may be caused by the rise in UrCity’s temperatures and the change in weather patterns. With the temperature raising and the vegetation becoming scarce there will be a problem finding certain animals (Hillel, 1995)…
