National Agricultural Market Atlas
Substantial structure and policy changes have swept the Agricultural marketing System in the context of economic reforms since 1991 and more so after the establishment of WTO. Therefore, many committees reviewed the system thoroughly and put forth various recommendations to make it more conducive to the change environment. The common thrust of the working groups is on developing infrastructure facilities, identification of new markets, and modernization of existing markets, assessing movement of marketable surplus, developing sub markets, matching the infrastructure with the availability of output etc.

For this an integrated marketing system has been visualizes that can encompass all sort of information at one particular point. This can be very well dovetailed with the planning document of the planners who has, in their fold systematic infrastructure planning to be used by the marketing system. Synchronization of both the plans can be extremely useful for translating the avowed objectives in a desirable manner. Keeping in view this objective, the proposed market atlas.

Using the postmortem data is no longer a dynamic device to get desirable results. Now the time is ripe enough to predict with the help of satellite images, the output that will arrive in the market. It goes without saying that this will be a realistic base to access the total quantum of the marketed surplus of the area, the market attracts from within its service area. There is positive correlation between level of infrastructure and development of the market. Higher level of infrastructure is followed by higher scale market development. In this context the infrastructure and logistic support should be given considerate thinking because rural markets represent a concentrate individually operating farmers and traders. Their structure and facilities, therefore, have to correspond to the requirement of the users. The users requirements vary specially according to the income of population/ degree of development, the product traded and training practices. Thus in low income market, there is narrow choice of product sold, the sales volume per user is smaller and users can not afford for so of National Market Atlas will mitigate over much of the problems indicated above and will help in prioritizing the category of markets to be developed first whether it is primary market, secondary marketer rural market.
