      abstract = {This paper was designed to investigate the present status  of marine fish marketing aiming to determine marketing  costs, margins and profits of marketing intermediaries both  in domestic and export marketing. Primary data were  collected by survey method wherein various market  intermediaries were interviewed from selected districts for  eliciting information at various stages of marine fish  marketing. The study revealed that marketing margin as well  as marketing profit both were relatively higher in consumer  market followed by primary and secondary markets where  beparies and aratdars were involved. Results indicate that  high priced fish demanded high marketing cost resulting  higher marketing margin and profit compared to low priced  fish. In the case of dry fish marketing, irrespective of  species of fish marketed, marketing margin and profit were  almost doubled compared to frozen fish marketing. Like  frozen fish, high valued dry fish also claimed higher  marketing cost leaving higher marketing margin as well as  marketing profit for intermediaries. In export marketing,  both for frozen and dried fish, marketing profit depends  mainly on demand for exportable fish in the world market.},
