A total of 105 respondents, 55 producer-respondents and 50 buyer-respondents composed the samples of the study. Data collection was done through personal interview with the respondents.
The producer-respondents' created an atomistic type of market, while the buyers created an oligopolistic type of market. Products were sold as homogenous product. There was of ease in entry in the business thus, approaching a purely Competitive/atomistic type of market and a difficulty in the exit from the business, implying an oligopsolistic/oligopsonistic type of market. Market perfection existed due to adequacy of information in the marketing system. Two level channels existed in marketing hybrid orchids - the wholesaler and the wholesaler-retailer.
