Standardisation and Grading
Standardisation refers to producing goods of predetermined

Grading is the process of classification of products into
different groups, on the basis of some of its important
characteristics such as quality, size, etc.

separated. So, transportation is required from the place where
they are produced to the place where they are consumed.
