چکیده مقاله:
This research was conducted in Sokoto metropolis to examine the structure and conduct of beef marketing. Data were collected using three sets of structured questionnaires, one each for the producers, retailers and consumers. Ten respondents were randomly selected from each category making 30 respondents in each Local Government. This gives a total of 90 respondents as the sample size for the study. The data generated were analyzed using descriptive statistics (frequencies and percentages), measures of marketing efficiency, Gini coefficient and budgeting. A Gini coefficient of 0.24 showed that marketing is perfectly competitive in the study area. Marketing profitability of #275,361 showed that beef marketing is profitable in the study area.
