Abstract

Organized and effecient marketing is essential for the healthy growth of an economy which will be benefits to the producer as well as the consumer. Agriculture is very important for Indian peoples, nearly 70% of Indian population being dependent on agriculture. In order to eliminate the middlemen from the marketing activities and to provide better price for agricultural products, the cooperative marketing societies were established during 1912. Co-operative marketing societies are manage and run by the farmers themselves and the profit earned are distributed among the member farmers according to the quantity of the product marketed by them.
