Imin  +  269961 Wed, 20 Sep 06 06:10 PM What is  "forward and back haul"?  This expression implies two complementary  actions? This the context I found the expression: ...complementarity, or joint production, as between forward and back hauls, has its counterpart in the joint production of hides and meat from the same animal.

	Imin  +  269993 Wed, 20 Sep 06 07:14 PM Larger context for forward and back hauls, Many of the characteristics that are held to make transportation 'different' are in fact found in other industries as well, and … the same forms of analysis that are applicable in other industries can be utilized as well for transportation. Thus complementarity, or joint production, as between forward and back hauls, has its counterpart in the joint production of hides and meat from the same animal. Imin
