Abstract

Marketing of fish and fishery products in the three markets of Gazipur district were studied during the period from November 2014 to April 2015. Data were collected from three different markets. A total of 45 traders (retailers), 15 from each market were interviewed at the market center. A survey questionnaire was developed, pre-tested and finally used for collection of data. Data were collected from the three different fish markets through questionnaire interviews and focus group discussions. Three types of marketing channel were found to be operated in the selected markets. The market chain from fishermen to consumer passes through a number of intermediaries: local traders, agents/suppliers, retailers and consumers. The shorter marketing chain which included the fish farmers, retailers and consumers was found to be more beneficial to the fish producers. There are some fish species available in three different markets, such as Indian major carps i.e. rui, catla, mrigal and Exotic fish i.e. silver carp, grass and common carp, tilapia, pangas etc. The price of fish depended on size, weight, season, availability, species quality and size of fishes. Different types of dried and salted fish were available in the markets. A number of constraints for fish marketing were reported by the retailers, the constraints were lack of storage facilities, poor supply of ice, exploitation by middlemen, lack of money and lack of infrastructure.

孟加拉国加济浦尔地区鱼市场及营销体系研究
2014年11月至2015年4月对加济浦尔地区三个市场的鱼和渔产品销售情况进行了研究。数据收集自三个不同的市场。在市场中心共采访了45名贸易商(零售商),每个市场15名。开发了一份调查问卷,进行了预先测试,最后用于收集数据。通过问卷访问和焦点小组讨论,从三个不同的鱼市收集数据。在选定的市场中发现了三种类型的营销渠道。从渔民到消费者的市场链要经过许多中间机构:当地贸易商、代理商/供应商、零售商和消费者。研究发现,包括养鱼户、零售商和消费者在内的较短的销售链对养鱼户更有利。有一些鱼类可以在三个不同的市场上买到,例如印度主要的鲤鱼,即鲤鱼,鲶鱼,结婚鱼和外来鱼,即鲢鱼,草鱼和鲤鱼,罗非鱼,鲶鱼等。鱼的价格取决于鱼的大小、重量、季节、可得性、鱼种质量和鱼的大小。市场上有不同种类的干鱼和咸鱼。零售商报告了鱼类销售的一些限制因素,这些限制因素是缺乏储存设施、冰供应不足、中间商剥削、缺乏资金和缺乏基础设施。亚洲Australas。j .
