Introduction 	
There  is a  general  feeling  that  the  globalization a nd  liberalization  had affected the 
agriculture  sector  adversely.  Increase in  cost  of  p roduction  and  lesser income  received  by 
the cultivators has led the agricultural sector to  a severe crisis.  There is a wide difference 
between the price received by the cultivators and t he price given by the consumers for the 
agriculture  products.  Profit  is  spread  among  the  wh olesalers,  retailers  and  agents.  In  the 
case of many agricultural products the cultivators  get only around 50% of the price paid by 
the  consumers.    Deliberate  attempt  is  needed  to  red uce  the  difference  between  the 
consumption  price  and  price  received  by  the  cultiva tors.    A  detailed  survey  is  needed  to 
collect  the  data  in  respect  of  this  sector  and  the  analysis  of  data  will  be  helpful  for 
preparing projects to assist cultivators.    
The  State  Agricultural  Prices  Board   has  proposed  a  ‘Study  on  Price  Spread’  of 
major  agricultural  produces  especially  of  Coconut  a nd  Banana  (Nenthran)  and  suggested 
to  prepare  a  detailed  scheme  of  the  study.      A  samp le  survey  in  Thiruvananthapuram 
district is proposed as a pilot project to assess t he feasibility of a detailed study all over the 
state.    
1.1 Objectives  1.  To  analyse  the  price  spread  of  coconut  and  banana  t hrough  a  pilot  study  in 
Thiruvananthapuram district. 
2.   To study the cost of production, quantity produced,  income and the role of markets 
relating to the above crops. 
3.   Using these data prepare suitable projects to assis t the cultivators. 
  
1.2 Methodology  Prepared  a  list  of  coconut  and  banana  cultivators  i ncluded  in  the  clusters  of 
EARAS  survey  in  2006-07  in  the  four  Taluks  of  Thiru vananthapuram  district.  The 
cultivators  listed  were  then  stratified  into  small,   medium  and  large  (Details  in  table) 
according  to  the  area  of  cultivation  and  selected  5 0  cultivators  from  each  strata  of  each 
crop  randomly.  (It  was  decided  to  select  the  cultiv ators  having  coconut  trees  with  in  the

The  enumerators  have  visited  each  coconut  cultivato r  once  in  two  months and  the 
details  thus  collected  has  been  recorded  in  the  sch edules  (Form1)  designed  for  this 
purpose.  The  area  of  cultivation  (including  number  of  trees),  cost  of  cultivation,  total 
production,  price  of  produces,  income  received  and  the  details  about  the  efforts  of 
cultivators were collected from the selected coconu t cultivators. 
The  enumerators  have  visited  banana  cultivators  onc e  in  three  months  during  the 
survey period  and the details thus collected have b een  recorded in the schedules designed 
(Form  3)  for  this  purpose.  The  area  of  cultivation  (including  number  of  plants),  cost  of 
production,  total  production,  price  of  produces,  in come  received  and  the  other  details 
about the efforts of cultivators were collected fro m the selected banana cultivators. 
In  each  taluk,  three  market  centres  are  selected  fo r  the  market  study.    From  each 
centre  five  wholesale  dealers,  five  retail  dealers  and  five  agents  for  each  commodity 
(coconut and banana) has been selected. Besides the se, 3 small-scale units producing value 
added products using these produce as raw materials  were also selected for the study. The 
details of total commodities traded the price of bu ying and selling, incidental expenses etc 
were also collected by visiting these traders once  in two months. 
  
The  fieldwork  of  the  survey  entrusted  with  the  fiel d  staff  of  the  Department  of 
Economics and  Statistics. The  Deputy Director, Rese arch Officer and Taluk level officers 
were assigned with supervision of this survey.  
1.3 Period of the Survey  
  The  survey  was  conducted  during  the  agriculture  ye ar  2008-09.  The  fieldwork  of 
the survey started by July 2008 and completed by Ju ne 2009. 
1.4 Processing of data 	
 	The schedules have been coded and computerized in t he Directorate of Economics 
and Statistics. Preparation of software, data valid ation, table generation and preparation of 
report have been done in the Directorate of Economi cs and Statistics.

Price Spread study of Coconut 	
 	
 The  survey  aimed  to  study  the  price  spread  of  cocon ut  and  banana  that  are  very 
common  agricultural  products  in  the  district.  The  o bjective  of  this  report  is  to  present  the 
overall  features of  the  study and to  release the da ta  in the form of  tables generated  by the 
department,  based  on  the  study.  Hundreds  of  tables  are  appended  with  this  report  that  are 
useful  for  different  analysis  as  per  the  need  of  ag ricultulists  and  researchers  in  the 
agricultural field. It is not possible to include d etailed analyses, in all directions with these 
hundreds  of  tables  in  a  single  report.  These  analys es  are  to  be  done  separately  as  per  the 
requirement of eminants in the agricultural filed.  So this report do not attempt any detailed 
analysis,  however  present  the  data  that  are  ready  t o  analyse.  In  this  chapter  the  price 
spread of coconut is analyzed.  	
 	
2.1 Details of Coconut Cultivators  
2.1.1 Number of cultivators and Area of cultivation  
The  cultivators  selected  for  the  study  are  divided  into  three  groups,  according  to 
their area of cultivation, namely ‘Small’ (having l ess than 25 cents of coconut cultivation), 
‘Medium’  (having  25-50  cents  of  coconut  cultivation )  and  ‘Large’  (having  more  than  50 
cents  of  coconut  cultivation).    The  details  on  numb er  of  cultivators  from  each  taluk,  in 
three  different  categories  are  given  in  table  1.  Th e  agricultural  land  is  also  divided  into 
wetland  and  dry  land  according  to  its  nature.  The  n umbers  of  farmers  selected  for  the 
study, in each Taluk are given below

Table 2- Area of Cultivation  
  Area  of  land  given  above  includes  dry  and  wetland,  and  also  land  owned  and 
leased  by  the  cultivators.  The  large-scale  cultivat ors  are  not  using  leased  land  for  the 
cultivation. In the case of small and medium cultiv ators, about 5% of the land cultivated is 
leased land. From the above table, it is clear that  the cultivators utilize, in an average more 
than 80% of the cultivatable land for cultivation.    
2.1.2 Coconut Cultivation  The  farmers  selected  for  the  study  are  being  cultiv ated  different  types  of  coconut 
trees  including  HYV  (High  yield  variety)  in  wet  and   dry  lands  (irrigated  or  unirrigated). 
The  cultivators  of  the  sample  are  cultivating  8632  trees  in  an  area  of  9260  cents.  Among 
these  trees,  only  3.56%  of  the  trees  are  of  HYV.  Th e  small-scale  cultivators  are  not 
cultivating HYV trees. 79.25% of the cultivated lan d is unirrigated and 88.42% of the total 
area is dry land. More details are furnished in the  following table.

2.1.3 Expenditure 	
To  get  regular  and  proper  yield  from  the  trees,  the   cultivators  have  to  spend 
comparatively  a  good  amount  on  fertilizer,  manures,   pesticides,  wages,  irrigation 
expenses,  rent/lease  of  land  etc.  In  the  last  agric ultural  year  (July  2008  to  June  2009)  the 
selected farmers have spent an amount of 6.27 lakhs  as the expenditure for farming. In this 
expense, 55.08% have been utilized for wages. The v alue of their own effort is 4.34%.

The  above  expenditure  excludes  the  expenditure  on  harvesting  such  as  wages  for 
harvesting,  de-husking,  loading  and  unloading,  comm ission  charges  etc.  In  the  last 
agricultural  year  cultivators  have  spent  5.15  lakh  of  Rupees  in  this  category.  The  month 
wise expenditure of the cultivators is furnished in  the following table.

2.1.4 Production 	
The selected farmers in the sample are harvesting two types of coconuts viz., Ripe 
and Tender. But the production of tender coconuts i s comparatively small. More than 90% 
of the tender coconuts are harvesting from Thiruvan anthapuram Taluk. 
The  selected  cultivators  have  harvested  about  3.7  l akhs  of  ripe  coconuts  in  the 
agricultural  year  from  July  2008  to  June  2009,  whil e the  production  of  tender  coconuts  is 
about  40  thousands.  Production  according  to  type,  m onth  wise  productions  etc  are 
furnished in the following tables.

From  the  above  details  of  production  and  expenditur e,  it  can  observe  that  the 
average  expenditure  per  coconut  is  Rs  2.72  (small-  Rs  2.89,  medium-  Rs  2.95  and  large- 
Rs 2.62).

2.1.5 Sales  
  
(a) Sales in numbers The  cultivators  sold  the  harvested  coconuts  to  diff erent  agencies  like  agents, 
wholesalers,  retailers  etc  and  consumers  directly.  There  are  variations  in  the  prices  of 
coconuts  while  handover  from  one  hand  to  another.  I n  each  transfer  of  the  commodity, 
some  value  is  added  to  the  price,  causing  a  signifi cant  difference  between  the  prices  of 
coconut  that  the  consumers  pay  and  the  cultivators  receive.  The  relevance  of  this  Price 
Spread Survey is to find out magnitude of the said  difference and to identify the ways that 
lead to the spread of price of the commodity.     The  following  diagrams  give  the  selling  pattern  of  the  coconuts  to  different 
agencies in the last agricultural year.

the coconuts respectively. Small, medium and large- scale cultivators  gave first  preference 
to  agents  to  sell  the  coconuts.  In  the  case  of  medi um  and  large-scale  cultivators,  the 
percentage of coconut sold to consumers directly is  small. The small-scale cultivators have 
sold 22.30% of the coconuts to the consumers direct ly.

the medium scale cultivators have not sold tender coconuts, and the small-scale cultivators 
have sold for a little amount of rupees. In the cas e of large-scale cultivators, 22.60% of the 
value  of  sale  was  from  Tender  coconuts.    The  cultiv ators  had  a  little  income  from  husk, 
which amount to about 5 thousands.         
  For  the  analysis  of  price  spread  of  the  coconut,  t he  price  on  one  coconut  received 
by  the  cultivators  from  different  agencies  is  essen tial;  these  details  are  furnished  in  the 
following table. 
 	The  average  price  on  one  coconut  is  higher  for  larg e-scale  cultivators.  The  data 
indicates  that  cultivators  get  better  prices  when  t he  coconuts  are  selling  to  consumer 
directly  and  the  cultivators  receive  comparatively  small  price  when  the  coconuts  are 
selling  to  wholesalers.  The  maximum  absolute  deviat ions  of  the  prices  from  the  average 
are 37 paise for small-scale cultivators, 55 paise  for medium scale cultivators and 50 paise 
for  large-scale  cultivators.  That  is,  the  price  var iation  is  minimum  for  small-scale 
cultivators.  The cultivators sold tender coconuts  only to agents or wholesalers

 	Beside  cultivators,  some  traders  of  coconut  have  be en  selected  for  the  survey  to 
study  the  price  spread  arising  from  their  part.  The   traders  belong  to  any  one  of  the 
categories  viz.,  agent,  wholesaler,  retailer  and  ma nufacturer.  Manufacturer  is  one  who

produces  coconut  related  products  like cocnut  oil. The  particulars  of  purchase and  sale  of 
the  commodity,  and  the  incidental  expenditure  arose   in  the  transferring  of  coconuts  are 
studied. The number of traders selected from each c atagorey is shown in the table above. 
2.2.1 Purchasing patterns 
 	The  traders  purchase  coconut  from  cultivators  direc tly  and  also  from  different 
agencies. In the last agricultural year, the select ed traders have purchased about 1.55 crore 
of coconuts as  the part of their business. From  tab le 9  the traders have purchased 77.23% 
of  the  coconuts  from  cultivators  directly.  It  is  in terested  to  note  that  agents  purchased 
7.79% of coconuts from other agents, which causes p rice variation among the agents itself. 
The  percentage  of  purchased  coconuts  from  different   agencies  by  different  categories  of 
traders  is  furnished  in  the  following  table.  It  is  also  to  be  noted  that  the  traders  have  not 
purchased tender coconuts in the last agricultural  year.

  The  purchasing  price  per  coconut  varies  for  differe nt  agencies,  and  the  price 
depends on the agency, from which the coconut is pr ocessing. In table 10 average price of 
one  coconut  purchasing  from  different  agencies  are  furnished;  from  the  table  we  can 
observe  a  price  variation  even  among  the  traders.  F or  example,  an  agent  purchased  a 
coconut from different agencies for an average pric e of Rs. 4.97, but the different agencies 
purchased a coconut from the agents for an average  price of Rs 5.35.

2.2.2 Incidental Expenditure 
 	While  processing  or  transferring  of  the  coconuts,  the  traders  have  to  spend  some 
amount  as  incidental  expenditure  in  different  categ ories  like  salary  and  wages, 
transportation,  rent,  electricity,  tax/  license  fee   etc.  In  the  last  agricultural  year,  the 
selected  traders  had  an  incidental  expenditure  of  a bout  Rs.1.05  crore.    Major  part  of  this 
amount  belongs  to  the  categories  of  salary  and  wage s,  transportation  and  the  value  of  the 
own efforts of the traders. Trader wise incidental  expenditure is given below. 
  Agent     – 14.80 lakhs  
  Wholesaler    – 29 lakhs  
  Retailer      – 7.1 lakhs  
  Manufacturer   – 54.35 laks  
2.2.3 Sales 	
 	The  agencies  sell  the  coconuts  to  different  agencie s  or  consumers  directly.  The 
agencies  have  sold  66.44%  of  the  coconuts  they  purc hased.  This  difference  in  the 
percentage  is  because;  the  percentage  of  selling  by   the  manufacturers  was  only  1.08%. 
Agents,  wholesalers  and  retailers  have  sold  respect ively  99.84%,  96.79%  and  95.84%  of 
the  coconuts  they  purchased.  These  agencies  have  so ld  majority  of  the  coconuts  to 
manufacturers.  The  table  given  below  gives  the  perc entages  of  selling  coconuts  to 
different agencies.

 	In  table  12,  the  average  price  on  one  coconut  those  sold  to  different  agencies  by 
different  traders  are  presented.  It  can  observe  tha t  the  average  price  on  coconut  is  higher 
for  manufacturer  and  the  traders  received  higher  pr ice  from  consumers.  When  consider  a 
consumer, he bought a coconut from an agent for Rs  5.64 while for Rs 6.57 from a retailer. 
But the agents sold only 14.26% of coconuts to cons umer directly.   
 	
 	Besides the above income from the coconuts, the tra ders had an extra income from 
the  husk;  the  average  income  from  husk  per  one  coco nut  is  Rs  2.15.  It  is  noted  that 
94.74%  of  the  total  income  from  husk  distributed  to   wholesalers  and  manufactures  and 
80%  of  the  total  income  from  husk  goes  to  manufactu rer’s  hand.  This  is  an  extra  income 
from one coconut besides the usual profit from one  coconut. 
  
  Now  we  can  analyse  the      spread  of  price  of  one  co conut  by  considering  the 
different  possibilities  of transferring.  For  exampl e,  consider  the  following  possible chains 
of transfer of coconut.    	
In the first line the chain, in the second line the selling prices, in the third line the profit in each 
transfer and in the fourth line the overall price v ariation on one coconut are given. 	
 	
Chain 1 
Cultivator---- Agent---- Wholesaler----Retailer----  Consumer 
4.94          5.19                6.03           6. 57 
0.25              0.84                0.54   
1.63 
 
Chain 2 
Cultivator----Wholesaler-----Retailer----Consumer 
                                               5.22                  6.03            6.57 
        0.81                 0.54   
          1.35  	
   	
Chain 3 
Cultivator----Wholesaler----Consumer 
5.22               6.14 
0.92  	
 	In  the  above  examples,  in  chain  1  there  are  four  tr ansfers  that  cause  an  overall 
variation of 1.63 rupees excluding the extra income  from the husk. In the second chain one 
transfer is reduced by  not considering the agent; h ere the  variation reduces  to 1.35 rupees

and  the cultivator  get  better  price  than  in  the  first  chain.  In  the  third,  the  variation  is  only 
0.92  rupee.  From  the  above  table,  it  can  observe  th at  the  agents  sold  the  coconuts  to  the 
consumer for an average price of rupees 5.64. Here  the variation is comparatively low and 
price  on  one  coconut  that	
 is  to  be  paid  by  the  consumers  is  low.  From  the  abo ve 
information  and  percentages  given  in  the  report,  it   can  assume  that  chain  1  frequently 
happens.    
  Note	
 that  all  the  chains  given  above  are  assumptions  and   the  variations  are 
calculated  based  on  the  district  wise  figures.  Ther e  may  be  other  different  possibilities  of 
chains  of  transfer  and  the  price  spread  may  vary  fo r  different  taluks  or  months  or 
individuals. Price per nut tables given in the appe ndix may help for such analyses. 	
 	In  the  first  part  of  the  report,  based  on  the  infor mation  obtained  from  the 
cultivators,  the  average  price  per  one coconut  rece ived  is Rs  5.39 and the cost  of  coconut 
that the cultivators sold to consumers is Rs 5.84.  From this two observations can be made 
in comparing with the data obtained from the trader s. 
1.   From  some  agencies,  other  than  the  selected  traders   in  the  study,  the  cultivators 
receive better prices. 
2.   The  consumer  can  buy  coconuts  from  the  cultivators  directly  for  comparatively 
low prices, which reduces the price spread. 
  The selected traders for the study were not the ma in traders of tender coconuts. The 
number  of  tender  coconuts  in  their  business  of  last   agricultural  year  was  comparatively 
very  small;  hence  the  analysis  of  ripe  and  tender  c oconuts  has  not  been  carried  out 
separately.    
  In  the  above  discussions,  the  average  prices  of  th e  agricultural  year  as  a  whole 
have  been  considered.  These  prices  may  vary  when  th e  taluk  or  month  wise  analysis  is 
done.  In  the  appendix  of  this  chapter,  taluk  wise  a nd  month  wise  data  on  coconut 
cultivators  and  coconut  traders  are  furnished,  that   are  ready  for  generating  different 
analytic  measures  related  to  the  price  spread  analy sis  of  coconut.  Different  types  of 
analysis,  in  various  directions,  on  different  aspec ts  of  coconut  cultivators  and  traders  are 
also possible using these tables.
