A Computerized Remote-Access Commodity Market: Telcot

Don E. Ethridge

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1978, vol. 10, issue 2, 177-182

Abstract: Cotton marketing, like the marketing of other agricultural commodities, traditionally has been done through relatively small country markets. Problems for cotton producers resulting from this type of market structure are the limited availability of market price information and the limited degree of buyer competition for their product at the local level. Though these are seemingly inherent problems in local markets, new technologies in the form of electronic markets can help to overcome them.
