Description: Provides reproducible tools for analysing agricultural
        marketing channels, price spread, the producer's share in the
        consumer price, intermediary costs and margins, and alternative
        indices of marketing efficiency. Implements conventional,
        Shepherd, and Acharya measures; validates stage-level channel
        accounts; compares and ranks channels; and supplies bootstrap
        confidence intervals, scenario sensitivity analysis,
        loss-adjusted margins, break-even calculations, and
        base-graphics methods. Methodological context is provided by
        Acharya and Agarwal (2021, ISBN:9789389688061) and Shepherd
        (2007) <https://www.fao.org/4/u8770e/u8770e00.htm>.
