Pesticide Traders, 2003 - Bangladesh

Abstract
---------------------------

Bangladesh does not produce any active ingredients, it only imports and formulates. The marketing channel of pesticides in Bangladesh consists of pesticide companies, distributors, wholesalers, wholesaler-cum-retailers, retailers and farmers (Sabur and Moila, 2000). At the top, there exist approximately 66 officially registered companies, with 6 of these being multinational in nature. Distributors buy almost all of their products from pesticide companies. However, the pesticide companies also directly sell to wholesalers. Distributors, in turn, sell their products to the wholesalers-cum-retailers, retailers and large farmers. Wholesalers sell to retailers as well as farmers. Retailers, in turn, sell their product to farmers, but farmers frequently buy directly from the distributors as well as wholesalers.

Survey Design:
The survey, conducted in the summer 2003 by the World Bank, interviewed 110 pesticide traders (more or less equally divided between wholesalers and retailers) across 7 districts of Bangladesh. The survey collected detailed information from traders, including: 1) the name, location and nature of the shop; 2) trader’s characteristic: age, ownership, nutritional status: weight/height; 3) pesticide log & sales: trade name, chemical name, content quantity, price, best selling pesticides; 4) traders’ knowledge of pesticides: information and training received on use and safe handling of pesticides; 5) precautions and damage averting behavior; and 6) health effects. The survey was designed and supervised by the World Bank team, and conducted by the Development Policy Group in Bangladesh. To minimize reporting bias, the survey was implemented under the agreement that the team would not reveal the identity of the trader companies surveyed on the respondents who participated.

摘要
---------------------------
孟加拉国不生产任何活性成分，仅进行进口和配方制作。孟加拉国农药的营销渠道包括农药公司、分销商、批发商、批发兼零售商、零售商和农民（Sabur 和 Moila，2000）。在市场顶端，大约有66家官方注册的公司，其中6家为跨国性质。分销商几乎从农药公司购买其所有产品。然而，农药公司也直接向批发商销售。分销商接着将产品销售给批发兼零售商、零售商和大型农民。批发商既向零售商销售，也向农民销售。零售商再将产品销售给农民，但农民常常直接从分销商和批发商那里购买。
