Abstract: Excerpts from the report Introduction: This is a report of the charges made at each step in the marketing process for carrots. It takes into consideration the services rendered by marketing agencies, and the channels through which carrots move from producing areas to consumers in Pittsburgh and Cleveland. The report provides specific information on marketing margins for carrots according to size of bunch and producing area. Margins are shown for retail stores grouped according to their methods of buying produce. Data in sufficient detail to relate margins and services are not provided by the regular price-reporting agencies. For those interested in improving the marketing of farm products, exact information of the type given in this report is a necessary prerequisite to studies of marketing efficiency.
