In my opinion, every farmer's first goal is to ensure that his produce meets the overall needs of his family first, and then he markets the remaining produce.He will earn a profit by selling it in the market. Since I grew up in a farming family, I can tell you from my experience that the primary goal of any farmer is to meet the needs of his family.Then he sells the remaining part of his produce in the market and uses the money he gets from the sale to meet his other needs.
Farmers face both good and bad experiences when it comes to marketing agricultural products.Generally, the demand for market products may vary depending on the season.Generally, the demand for summer vegetables increases during the summer season, while the demand for winter vegetables increases during the winter season.I usually buy different things from our local market at different times.From his experience, I am saying today that everything changes with time.For example, the demand for rice, pulses, and vegetables increases significantly during the rainy season, while the demand for fish and meat increases during the dry or summer season.
When there is a high supply of goods in the market, traders usually reduce the prices of goods significantly.On the other hand, when the supply of goods in the market decreases, traders increase the prices of goods to a large extent.This means that farmers sometimes get a fair price and sometimes they are deprived of their fair price.This usually hurts us because when prices are low, we are able to meet our family's needs, but when prices rise significantly, we are unable to meet some of our needs.

In my opinion, marginal farmers face the most difficulties in selling agricultural products.Because middlemen in the market buy goods from farmers at very low prices and sell them in the market at double the price they bought them at.This deprives farmers of their fair price.As a result, it is observed in the general market that sellers sell goods to buyers at double the price they purchased them for.Even though sellers can supply goods according to the demand of buyers, they sell them at a higher price because they buy goods from middlemen at double the price and sell them to buyers.
Because sellers do not have control over the prices they sell, they buy goods from other places at higher prices.If they do not sell the goods for more than their specified donation, they will suffer losses, so they sell them for a little more than the purchase price.

Today I am sharing an experience with you.I usually live in the village.The prices of agricultural products are generally very low in rural markets.Because here farmers directly pick their produce from their fields and sell it in the market on a small scale.But I have to stay in the city for my studies.The price of every product in the market there is twice as high as in the rural market.If the price of a product in a rural market is 20 taka, then due to the change in location, its price in the city market is 100 taka.When I go to buy almost all kinds of vegetables, I have to pay double the price of the village.Because they are buying products from farmers at low prices and selling them at double the price due to the change in location.This suggests that farmers are being deprived of their fair price.
In my opinion, if the administration or market monitoring authorities look into this matter carefully, some farmers will get their fair price.And middlemen cannot deprive farmers of their fair price.
I hope everyone enjoys my post today about my experience in marketing agricultural products and please let me know what you think about it in the comments.Thanks for the follow up to the end of my post.See you in a new post.Until then, everyone stay well, stay healthy, and stay safe.

Thank you for your valuable support.
Estoy totalmente de acuerdo con usted el objetivo de un buen agricultor es satisfacer las necesidades de la familia y luego comercializar los productos obtenido en su siembra
