| dc.description.abstract | Chilli crop is grown largely for the production of dry chillies, which is an important spice crop of India. This study was intended to make an attempt to identify the problems related to marketing of dry chillies, to develop the grade standards for dry chillies, extent of integration among the major dry chilli markets of Karnataka, analyzing management appraisal of chilli processing nits and extent of value addition to dry chillies. The both primary ands secondary data was collected and analyses by employing tabular presentation technique, index ranking, trend analysis, time series analysis, co-integration technique, nominal protection co-efficient and markov chain model. The investment pattern of dry chilli processing units revealed that, there was direct relationship between the total capital investment and the size of the unit in all the selected units, working capital was more because of heavy amount required on procurement of raw materials and the finished products marketed through two channels. These units manufacture range of products like chilli powder, sambar powder and turmeric powder. Retailers share was higher in total marketing margin as compared to other intermediaries in the chain. The co-integration analysis indicated that the selected markets are integrated at different orders. The growth rates of both quantity and value of exports of dry chilies found to be increased significantly. The nominal protection coefficient (NPC) indicated that India is more competitive in the export of dry chillies owing to its suitable agro-climatic conditions and cheap labour. The USA and Malaysia were found to be highly loyal markets for Indian chilli as indicated by the retention of their previous share of dry chillies exports from India. The farmers opined that the rain uncertainty, lack of labour availability, lack of input availability and among the marketing problems wide price fluctuations, high cost on packaging and transportation cost are the major problems opined by the farmers. | en_US |
