RURAL MARKETING:
"Packaged milk is not acceptable to a semi — urban consumer is a myth". Essentially what a semi-urban
consumer is look for is:-
Value for money.

The semi-urban consumer is changing very evident from the fact that the rate of growth for washing
machines and TV sets is more in the rural markets than in class I cities. Rural marketing can give the unions
the following advantages:-
It gives the unions an opportunity to sell other dairy products along with the liquid milk.
If unions sell pack milk in rural markets the sale of loose milk is bound to go down, Hence. the unions
have more milk available for their procurement.
If the procurement of the unions increases it will automatically prevent the loose milk from entering into
the city market.
• Door delivery

If a union is able to establish a retail network that ensures that all the above benefits are made available to the
consumer. the union is bound to sell large quantities of milk.

Researchers usually start their investigation by examining secondary data to see whether the problem can
be partly or wholly solved without collecting costly primary data.
When needed data do not exist or are dated, inaccurate, incomplete or unreliable, the will have to collect
primary data most marketing research projects involve some primary data collection. The normal
procedure to interview some people individually or in groups. to get sense of how people feel about the
topic in question and then develop a formal research instrument, debug it and carry it into the field.
RESEARCH APPROACH:-
For collecting primary data the approach I used was •survey research' survey are best suited for
descriptive research. Companies undertake surveys to learn about people's knowledge, beliefs,
preference and satisfaction and to measure these magnitudes in the general population.
RESEARCH INSTRUMENT:-
The research instrument I used was 'Questionnaire'. A questionnaire consists ofset of question
presented to respondents. Because of flexibility, the questionnaire is by far the most common instrument
used to collect the primary data. Questionnaire need to be careful developed. tested and debugged before
they are administered on a large scale.
Marketing research distinguishes between closed end and open end questions specify all the
possible answers and provide answers that are easier to interpret and tabulate. Openend questions allow
respondents to answer to their own words and often reveal more about how people think.
