Intro'cton
From the strict marketing point of vie! the market structure in "n#ia is #ichotomous
having rural an# urban markets. But many #o not concur ith this vie as they conten#that consumer everyhere is a consumer an# hence their nee#s! aspirations! beliefs an#
attitu#es ill also be the same. $he fact! hoever! remains that there are certain uni%ue
characteristic features hich call for separate marketing strategies to be #istinctively
#evelope# to suit the rural an# urban market behaviour.
Con#itions e&isting in urban markets at present can also be analy'e# in this conte&t. First!
the urban markets have almost reache# a saturation level that further tapping them ith a
high profit margin has become #ifficult. (econ#ly! competition is becoming tough in
urban markets compelling many firms to incur heavy costs in promotional e&pen#iture.
$hir#ly! the aareness level of urban consumers is high an# hence pro#uct features have
to be change# often. )ee#less to say this process nee#s a huge investment hich ill
have a negative impact on profitability. $hus! e&cept perhaps for easy reach the urban
markets have become as oasis.
Sn6c$nce o6 Rr$/ M$r+et.
$he rural markets are estimate# to be groing fastly compare# to the urban markets. $he
potentiality of rural markets is sai# to be like a *oken up sleeping giant*. $hese facts are
substantiate# in a stu#y of market groth con#ucte# by various researches. "n recent
years! rural markets have ac%uire# significance in countries like China an# "n#ia! as the
overall groth of the economy has resulte# into substantial increase in the purchasing
poer of the rural communities. On account of the green revolution in "n#ia! the rural
areas are consuming a large %uantity of in#ustrial an# urban manufacture# pro#ucts. "n
this conte&t! a special marketing strategy! namely! rural marketing has taken shape.
(ometimes! rural marketing is confuse# ith agricultural marketing + the later #enotes
marketing of pro#uce of the rural areas to the urban consumers or in#ustrial consumers!
hereas rural marketing involves #elivering manufacture# or processe# inputs or services

to rural pro#ucers or consumers.
, number of factors have been recogni'e# as responsible for the rural market boom to
come into e&istence-
1. "ncrease in population an# hence increase in #eman#.
2. , marke# increase in the rural income #ue to agrarian prosperity.
. (tan#ar# of living is also increasing in rural areas.
/. 0arge inflo of investment for rural #evelopment programmes from government an#
other sources.
. "ncrease# contact of rural people ith their urban counterparts #ue to #evelopment of
transport an# i#e communication netork.
. "ncrease in literacy an# e#ucational level an# resultant inclination to sophisticate# lives
by the rural folks.
3. "nflo of foreign remittances an# foreign ma#e goo#s into rural areas.
4. Change in the lan# tenure systems causing a structural change in the onership
patterns an# conse%uent changes in the buying behaviour.
5. 6ural markets are laggar#s in picking up ne pro#ucts. $his ill help the companies to
phase their marketing efforts. $his ill also help to sell inventories of pro#ucts out #ate#
in urban markets.

INFORMATION THROUGH LOCAL AGRICULTURE

:ost of the #ealers have #irect touch ith the local farmersE these farmers nee#
aareness about pests! #ecease! fertili'ers! see#s! technology an# recent
#evelopments. For this information! farmers mostly #epen# on local #ealers. For

throughout the country by the same organi'ation for marketing its pro#ucts. $hus
national chain stores can serve large number of customers in rural area.
COST *ENEFIT ANAL:SIS
Cost benefit can be achieve# through #evelopment of information technology at the
#oorsteps of villagersE most of the rural farmers nee# price information of agri9
pro#uce an# inputs. "f the information is available farmers can take %uick #ecision
here to sell their pro#uce! if the price matches ith local market farmer no nee# to
go near by the city an# aste of money I time it means farmers can enrich their
financial strength.
NEED *ASED PRODUCTION
(upply plays major role in price of the rural pro#uce! most of the farmers gro crops
in particular seasons not through out the year! it causes oversupply in the market an#
#rastic price cut in the agricultural pro#uce. )o the information technology has
been improving if the rural people enable to access the rural communication! farmers
