Abstract:

Many intermediaries and concentration of vegetable trade in the hands of middlemen have resulted in exploitation of growers and consumers. This experiment examines various aspects of integration in selected regulated wholesale markets for vegetables at South 24 Parganas, West Bengal, India. These regulated markets were established to improve the marketing efficiency. Johansen test was used to find out the integration of markets. It is an empirical approach for evaluating the spatial price link ages between a pair of regional markets through the use of ordinary least square estimation. Major vegetable markets are well integrated while smaller markets are weakly integrated.
