The tender coconut market in the Kasaragod district is a perfect example of multiple market formations at different regions of the district. Apparently there were no entry barriers or price discrimination in the market. We could observe the coexistence of all theoretically possible market behavior patterns, which evidently reflects an evolving commodity market. For instance in Kasaragod, major share of the tender coconut supply was found to be provided by three traders, and on the other hand at certain regions we could observe perfect competition in the supply side which enhanced the bargaining position of the retailer/vendor. |
