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)
