摘要

A survey of poultry markets was conducted in July and August 2000 in Makurdi Area of Benue State, Nigeria on a random sample of seventy five (75) sellers and seventy-five buyers of poultry in the open markets. It was found that males dominated the seller side while females dominated the buyers side. The commodity traded was identical but non-homogeneous, while the measures for sales and purchases varied. There was a general greater dependence on informal sources for market price information than formal sources. Bargain was the sole method of price determination. The sellers association hampered entry into the markets. Furthermore there was an estimated buyers Gini coefficient of 0.274 while that of the sellers was 0.270. This indicates a high sellers concentration and low buyers concentration. This implies that there was a general low level of inequality in sales and purchases. There was also no significant price variation in poultry sales between the different markets in the study area. Among the possible theoretical configurations, the poultry market investigated was most akin to Oligopolistic competition. For improvement of the poultry markets and marketing in Makurdi area, Benue State and Nigeria in general it is important to check the activities of sellers association and the high sellers concentration to give room to competition amongst sellers of poultry to check price hiking artificially.
