* Micro scale cashew processors, are those that are involved in cashew processing as a home industry and in the case
of cashew, they are mainly women. The middlemen collect cashew that is processed by these women and sell it to
the exporters/buyers. In the larger scale the middlemen are seen as the small-scale cashew processors.
