four selected states was tested to assess intra-state regional integration of rice markets.

The
cointegration results for Uttar Pradesh showed that regional markets are so intertwined that the
Law of One Price (LOP) holds for rice varieties III and IV ARWA. Despite the fact that the
regional rice markets were found to be integrated, no evidence was discovered in favour of the
LOP for the coarse or common type of rice traded in Bihar, Orissa, and West Bengal. The
findings of the inter-state regional integration of rice markets, which were represented by four
market centres chosen from the four selected states, indicated that, while the markets are
connected, they are not fully integrated, the LOP does not hold.

Kumar Ranjit (2000) using the co integration technique, researchers looked at the link
between rice prices in the home market (New Delhi) and important rice markets across the
world, such as Bangalore and Houston (USA). The findings clearly showed that none of the
price series were stable or integrated across time.

Kozachuk (2001) any management approaches used by Russian businesses were found to be
unsuitable for operating under market circumstances, according to the survey. There was an
obvious need for management functions to be expanded, as well as new management
techniques and approaches fit for various ownership types to be established. The administration
of a trading company should be based on market concepts and contemporary management
practises. Different forms of organisational structure in trading firms were explored and based
on key themes in western management theory. The functional structure, in which jobs are
organised by their major functional area; the divisional structure, in which positions are
grouped by product or service similarities; and hybrid structures, which combine components
of both functional and divisional structures. Different management methods, particularly
directive and democratic approaches, were also studied. The economic circumstances and
functional qualities of every specific trading firm affected the choice of management style, it
was emphasised.

Madlapure et al. (2002) in the Konkan Region of Maharashtra, India, researchers looked at
the commercial turnover and operational efficiency of dairy cooperative organisations. The
cooperative societies in the sample have more share capital and borrowings than the
progressive societies, but the latter have more accumulated funds; the cooperative societies
operate with very little working capital but high efficiency; and the progressive societies have
lower turnover than the other societies.
