farming); livestock (including ranching); forestry products etc
Importance of producers in agricultural marketing channels

i) Supply of Different Goods and Services:
Supply comes from the producer side. The producers or firms
supply various goods and services in the market according to the
demand of the consumers. Hence, if the number of producers
increases, then the total supply of goods and services will also
increase.

Producers are also entrepreneurs. They are the main coordinators
of all the factors of production like land, labour, capital etc. They
usually take the responsibilities to allocate the factors of
production for conducting smooth business activities.

utilise all the economic resources, like forest resource, land
resource, mineral resource, water resource, human or labour
resource etc. optimally or efficiently for the production activities.

the path of economic development.

demand of a particular product, the factors of production, i.e., land,
labour, capital etc. responsible for the production of that product’s
demand will also increase automatically.
