Zorluk: OrtaManufacturing Industries and Location Factors

Match each Nigerian manufacturing industry listed on the left with its primary industrial location factor on the right.

  • Timber and sawmilling at SapeleRaw material weight-loss and bulk reduction during processing
  • Petroleum refining at Port HarcourtDirect access to crude oil pipelines and deep-water port transport
  • Automobile assembly at KadunaMarket demand, regional distribution, and footloose component assembly
  • Fruit canning at CalabarHigh perishability of raw agricultural harvest

Cevap

Timber and sawmilling at Sapele matches Raw material weight-loss and bulk reduction; Petroleum refining at Port Harcourt matches Direct access to crude oil pipelines and deep-water port transport; Automobile assembly at Kaduna matches Market demand, regional distribution, and footloose component assembly; Fruit canning at Calabar matches High perishability of raw agricultural harvest.
Each Nigerian industry is matched to its dominant geographic location factor based on Weberian locational analysis and resource distribution: timber milling is raw-material weight-losing oriented; oil refining relies on bulk crude pipelines and port transport; automobile assembly is market-oriented for finished vehicle delivery; and fruit canning is dictated by the high perishability of agricultural inputs.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the input nature of timber processing at Sapele.
Recognize that logs lose substantial weight (waste wood, bark, sawdust) during sawmilling, making it raw-material oriented.
Weight-losing industries locate near raw material sources according to Weber's material index principles.
2
Analyze petroleum refining requirements at Port Harcourt.
Connect refining to crude oil source proximity and seaport logistics.
Bulk liquid handling demands pipeline infrastructure and coastal export access.
3
Evaluate automobile assembly plant dynamics at Kaduna.
Identify vehicle assembly as a footloose, market-oriented industry.
Assembled cars are bulkier and more fragile to ship than knock-down component parts.
4
Examine fruit canning at Calabar.
Associate fruit processing with raw material perishability.
Perishable agricultural goods must be processed rapidly near the farm site to prevent spoilage.
