This study was conducted to determine the following: socio-demographic characteristics, marketing practices, annual net income, relationship between income and marketing practices and socio-demographic characteristics, and the problems encountered in marketing by the fruit crop growers.
Fifty-two percent of the fruit crop grower-respondents who tilled a small piece of land had finished secondary education, eighty percent of them had large families. Sixty-eight percent of the fruit crop grower respondents had twenty-one years and more in farming experience and are owner-operators. Forty-eight percent of them sold their products in the farm but forty-three percent sold them by the number of sacks. Fifty-two percent sold their products weekly, sixty-eight percent sold by wholesale either in the farm or market. Forty- two percent of the fruit crop grower-respondents had low income.
The size of the farm and household size and method of marketing were found to have a significant relationship with the income of the fruit crop grower— respondents.
Other factors such as educational attainment, farming experience, tenure status, place of sale, frequency of sale, and unit of sale had no significant relationship with income.
Poor feeder roads, poor means of transportation, low prices offered by the buyers, and the quality of the product were the most common problems encountered by the fruit crop growers in marketing the products.
