Bidyut Jyoti Kalita, Dr. Anjan Bhuyan
Abstract :
This paper tries to analyze the existing scenario of raw Jute marketing in Assam from grower’s perspective. The study is based on primary data collected through field survey of the researchers carried out in the Central Brahmaputra Valley zone of Assam. A total of 300 farmers were interviewed with the help of a structured schedule selected through multi–stage sampling procedure. It was observed that primary market, locally known as haats are still relevant as the major avenue of disposing of raw Jute by the growers. Traders are playing a vital role in the Jute marketing scenario of the region. It was also observed that small and marginal farmers are unable to get the benefits of price rise by storing the fiber due to weaker cash position.
