Abstract
India has a major contribution in population of Goat (26.40%) but not having an organized setup to support and sustain. Analyzing value chain of goat meat was help to identify different stakeholders, economic analysis of each stakeholder, channels that show flow of goat meat and constraints faced by each stakeholder. With this objective the study was conducted in Jashpur, Kanker, Mahasamund, Rajnandgaon and Raigarh district of Chhattisgarh selected on basis of highest goat population to analyze the Value Chain Analysis of Goat Meat in Domestic Market of
Chhattisgarh. The study was carried out on a sample size comprised of 100 goat farmers, 5 livestock markets, 50 aggregators, 29 traders, 50 retailers, 50 hotels/ restaurants and 150 consumers. Socio–economic profile of farmers, aggregators, traders, butchers and hotel is analyzed. Volume and value flow of goat in different channels revealed that percent of goat flow from farmers to consumer in terms of numbers and price respectively. Different channels (7 in number) were found for Chevon flow in market. Each channel had different price spread. Market margin, purchase price and selling price were also different between different stakeholders. Price spread was found to be marginally higher in channel 6 (Rs 821.91) as compared to channel 5 (Rs 767.685) and 7 (Rs740.23). However, magnitude of price spread was lower in channel 4 (Rs 13. 95). Study of constraints that faced by different stakeholders were ranked by using garret ranking method. Feeding and health services
related constraints emerged as most severe constraints faced by respondents (Farmers) in the study area. Fluctuation of market price was most sever factor that faced by other stakeholders. Different constraints were interrelated to each-other. Health services, feed and fodder, middleman, transportation, processing plants and polices related to other stakeholders than farmers were dimensions to work for improved
productive and profitable Chevon value chain. On basis of our study we could conclude that to fill the lacunae of goat meat value chain by improvement of animal nutrition practices, animal transportation, value addition techniques, animal byproduct processing plants and Government policies which can help to increase profit of each stakeholder.
