ABOUT US
Marketing of agricultural produce is gaining importance all across the world in general and developing world in particular. Agricultural marketing policy in India has been characterized by State participation in production activities; state intervention in procurement and distribution of food grains; directing agricultural economy through regulatory mechanism such as licensing and control on movement, storage; creation of facilitating centers in the form of regulated markets; encouraging co-operative marketing; creation of supporting infrastructure like storage and warehousing; and construction of link roads, market information network, marketing extension, etc. Over the years, to achieve an efficient system of buying, selling, storage and processing of agricultural commodities most of the State Governments enacted Legislations (Agricultural Produce Marketing (Regulation & Development) Act’s to provide the regulation for marketing and establishment of infrastructure for agricultural produce. The establishment of regulated wholesale markets has helped in creating orderly and transparent market conditions and also in increasing the access of farmers to such orderly markets.
