Although the settlement of a dispute
is certainly not the first thing that parties have in mind when
entering into a contract, they should be aware that differences,
grievances and disputes can arise at any time. These may relate
to various aspects of a business contract. It is important to anticipate
the potential areas of dispute and to identify in advance a method,
or a combination of methods, of preventing or settling any dispute.

is binding. It is a complementary system to court system. Arbitration
rests exclusively on the will of the parties. It is the need of
the hour for the Horticulture Industry to adopt this method in the

will help an industry to have long-term good relations with their
parties. Any business will face any disputes at any time. It is
