Abstract The major bottleneck of Agricultural Produce Marketing Committees (APMCs) is that agri-transactions are confined to only regulated market yards.

An endeavor was made to analyse the impact of amended APMC act on apple business in Himachal Pradesh. Study has covered two districts of Himachal Pradesh viz. Shimla and Kullu. Purposive, random and snow ball sampling were adopted to arrive at various units of analysis. Many aspects of marketing have been analysed in a very proper way. Total 88 apple growers were selected. These apple growers were further categorized in to two Groups viz. Group 1 (58 growers who follow traditional supply chain) and Group 2 (30 growers who follow traditional and modern/modern supply chain both). It was found that marketing efficiency of Adani and Apni Mandi (Channel E) is highest by Shepherd's formula and Acharya's formula respectively. Top Keywords Amended APMC act, modern supply chain, marketing efficiency, post harvest management traditional APMC act and temperate fruits. Top | |
