Analysis of the marketing of apples in Himachal Pradesh, India, shows
that despite the price support for apples announced since 1981, the
marketing system is riddled with myriad problems. Farmers had marketing
margins of 41% in 1984-85 and 42% in 1995-96. It is suggested that
multipronged strategies should be explored for the future development of
horticultural crops in the state in order to achieve better returns for
the growers. |
