V. M. Patel Institute of Management, Ganpat University, Kherva, Mehsana 384001, Gujarat, India *Corresponding Author: Email - [email protected] Received: March 14, 2019; Revised: March 26, 2019; Accepted: March 27, 2019; Published: March 30, 2019 Abstract: The present study was focused on the marketing of fresh and stored potato in Aravalli district of Gujarat, India. From the district, two talukas viz., Bayad and Modasa were purposely selected having the highest area and production. From each taluka, three villages were selected. In all 100 farmers, 20 wholesalers, 25 semi wholesalers and 40 retailers were surveyed for the study. Major marketing channels identified in the study for fresh potato was Farmer-Wholesaler-Semi Wholesaler-Retailer-Consumer and for the stored potato, it was Farmer-Cold storage-Wholesaler- Retailer-Consumer. It was observed that the price spread of stored potato marketing channel was high due to higher marketing cost of storage. The farmers were getting good prices of their produce during the peak season and lower prices in the off season resulting the bumper availability of potato from the cold stores.

PATEL ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR SMT.R.R.H.PATEL MAHILA ARTS COLLEGE, VIJAPUR DIST.MEHSANA (GUJARAT) 2015 Preface Literature reflects human emotions, thoughts and expressions. It’s a record of activities and abstract ideas of human beings. The oral tradition of literature is the aspect of literature passing ideas and feelings mouth to mouth. I’ve enjoyed going through the precious and rare pieces of folk literature collected and edited by Amrut Patel. I congratulate and salute Amrut Patel for rendering valuable service to this untouchable, vanishing field of civilization. His efforts to preserve the vanishing forms of oral tradition stand as milestone for future generation and students of folk literature. I am indebted to UGC for sanctioning the project. The principal of my college, Dr.Sureshbhai Patel and collegues have inspired me morally and intellectually. I thank them. I feel gratitude to Nanabhai Nadoda for uploding my ideas and making my work easy. Shaileshbhai Paramar, the librarian has extended his time and help, I thank him.

The report reflects research activities, administrative activities, academic progress and achievement of young research scholars, development of infrastructure and facilities, and establishment of network with advanced research groups around the world. It’s seventh time I have been assigned the job of compilation of Annual Report of the Centre. To prepare the Annual Report, all the faculty members and sections of the Centre spent their valuable time to provide respective data. It is a time bound work to be completed within a short span of time. This is the first time the Annual Report is translated and typed in Hindi within the Centre. The Hindi Officer, Sadhana Tiwari has given sincere fatigueless effort to translate the entire Annual Report in Hindi and library staff - Gurudas Ghosh and Ananya Sarkar typed the Annual Report in Hindi within a very limited time period. Words won’t be suffice to describe the painstaking labour of Hindi translation team. I would like to acknowledge the sincere efforts and labour of my Library staff - Gurudas Ghosh, Ananya Sarkar and Amit Roy without whom the work could not be completed within the stipulated time.
