A study of perception of farmers in APMC markets in Nagpur District of Maharashtra, India

Abstract: It has been observed that the regulated marketing system gives farmers, dealers, commission agents, and other market civil servants the institutional environment and physical infrastructure they need to conduct their trading activities and, as a result, give producer sellers the best pricing. In this sense, the Agricultural Product Marketing Committee's (APMC) function is crucial to the advancement of agricultural marketing. The APMC markets in Maharashtra's Nagpur District are the only focus of this investigation. The study's primary goals were to determine the arrival of specific foodgrains and their prices on the APMC market, as well as farmers' opinions regarding the general assistance of marketing infrastructure and the issues they encountered when utilizing it.
