“…During cotton marketing, intermediaries like traders/commission agents play an important role. They perform the role of price determination, cleaning and separation of foreign material like bracts, leaves, stems and immature and unopened bolls [17]. They purchase the seed cotton from the cultivators at their farm gate and put up for sale in the local ginning mills/ginning mills in other cities/ ginning mills in the other states.…”

Aim: To identify the main chain actors involved in value chain of cotton and asses their linkage, roles and responsibilities in the value chain and to map the complete value chain of cotton from producers to consumers. Methodology: Descriptive statistics mainly value chain analysis is used to map the generic value chain of cotton. The required primary data about the movement of cotton along the length of the value chain were collected from different stake holders involved in the value chain through pretested questionnaires by employing personal interview method. Results: It was found that value chain of cotton includes many stakeholders like input suppliers, producers, intermediaries, processors like ginners, spinners, weavers, dyers and printers and garment manufactures, playing their respective role in the value chain. Conclusion: Cotton crop undergoes multistage processing at the industrial level and it has very complex value chain involving multiple stake holders. Cotton has enormous potential as a source of raw materials for the textile industry. However, the low productivity, which is primarily the result of suboptimal farming practices, limits the total expansion of the cotton business. There is a need to set up a common platform which engage all stakeholders from farmer to consumers and strengthen the linkage between them so as to trade without the mediation of the brokers or commission agents.

Safflower is essentially a rabi season oil seed crop that grows well under the residual moisture with very limited requirement of water. This study traced the value chain of safflower in the Vikarabad district, in realization to the increased importance of safflower as a source of edible because of its nutritional status. The value chain analysis is helpful in identifying the product flow from producer to the consumers and defining the roles and responsibilities of all stakeholders along the chain. Value chain of safflower is complex with various stake holders along the chain and also the product flow is also observed through various channels. There is a lot of untapped potential for value addition in safflower, which if exploited would help all the stakeholders along the value chain by increasing the profits to them. Findings: The value chain of safflower is complex with the involvement of various stakeholders along the chain and the product flow was also observed to be through various channels. Though value addition to safflower has lot of potential but not exploited to the extent due to lack of knowledge about value added products and the complex nature of the crop.
