Abstract :
This research paper explores the multifaceted role of the symbolic word ‘apple’ in various domains, highlighting their importance from environmental, economic, and engineering perspectives. The cultivation and sale of apples, whether as raw materials or fruits, contribute to alternative revenue streams and sustainable development. By enhancing greenery and promoting eco-friendly practices, apple cultivation symbolizes a broader environmental commitment. The economic analysis of apples involves examining their market price and revenue generation, showcasing the interconnectedness of different disciplines. This paper also delves into the concept of "Apple Engineering," integrating agricultural engineering products with textile weaving machines, and discusses the industrial, economic, and communicative aspects of apples. A SWOT analysis and consideration of Political, Economic, Societal, and Technological (PEST) factors will illustrate how Business Process Reengineering (BPR) can be applied in this context.

Key-Words / Index Term :
