Download or read book Determinants of Customer Perception Towards Uzhavar Santhais Farmers Market in Salem District Tamil Nadu written by Shakeel ul Rehman and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of removing middleman from agricultural marketing in India and to eliminate the inefficiencies and malpractices, direct marketing of selling agricultural produce is seen progressing. Removing the middleman between the farmer and customer is a long felt need for the country as it would enable a farmer to gain maximum possible share a consumer spends on purchasing the agricultural produce. On the other hand it would deliver the produce at cheap and affordable price to consumers. So direct marketing is an economic way to satisfy both the farmer and customer. In these conditions the first farmers market namely Apni Mandi or Kisan Mandi was started in Chandigarh, Punjab in 1987, later on at Karnal, Haryana in 1988 and 1999 in Tamil Nadu, when the first Uzhavar Santhai of the state Tamil Nadu was inaugurated on 14th November 1999 at Madurai. Uzhavar Santhai locally or commonly called as Farmers' Market is one such example which has achieved success in most parts of India through an efficient marketing system of direct sale of fresh fruits and vegetables. In the present paper a survey has been done on the determinants of customer perception with respect to four Uzhavar Santhais' in Salem district of Tamil Nadu India. The investigator has modeled the factors which determine the customer perception towards these markets.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study was conducted on wholesale, retail and farmers' markets in Coimbatore to understand market efficiency, marketing efficiency (Shepherd's index) and price spread analysis. This could reveal the existing business opportunities for widening the scope of business or carving out a new business. A snowball type of sampling was adopted and the sample size was restricted to 120. Summary statistics, Garret Ranking technique and Regression analysis techniques were used. The locality of the markets was found to be the most important factor for the conduct of trade as 65.44 per cent vouched for it. About 51.70 per cent expressed satisfaction to the facilities available in the market. But the lack of infrastructure was the major blur as only 35.44 per cent people were satisfied about it. Price spread analysis was done for the commonly available vegetables in the markets: bhendi, potato, tomato and small onion. It revealed that the farmer's share in consumer's rupee was highest in wholesale market (72.23 per cent) followed by farmers' market (66.83 per cent) and retail market (60.33 per cent). The Shepherd's index was more tilted in the favour of farmer's market (3.33) and it was 3.03 and 2.07 in wholesale and retail markets respectively. Market efficiency was measured by marketing cost function of the vegetables. Variation in marketing cost by quantity marketed was found to be very high for small onion with regression co-efficient of 0.91. The marginal value of distance in general was found to be 5.50 and it implied that for every increase in km the marketing cost per quintal of vegetables increased by Rs.5.50. In the case of individual commodities, the marginal value of distance was highest for small onion (9.47) and lowest for tomato (1.42).

Download or read book The Image Trap written by M. S. S. Pandian and published by SAGE Publications Pvt. Limited. This book was released on 2015-04-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Image Trap analyses the phenomenon of M.G. Ramachandran (MGR), the legendary film star-cum-politician of Tamil Nadu, as a modern-day political myth. This book offers fascinating details about the extent to which MGR was successful in creating a stereotypical cinematic persona, and what repercussions it had on Tamil Nadu. Delineating the cultural elements that were meticulously mobilised to constitute MGR’s on-screen image, it analyses the popularity he enjoyed among the poor whose interests he constantly violated. This is done by means of what Pandian termed as constructed biographies which are popular narratives that ingeniously present the cinematic as real. It brings out the interface and interplay between the media and political processes. A blend of essay writing, political rhetoric and scholarship, the book features the complete filmography of MGR and is a must for understanding the contemporary politics of the state.
