An efficient mrketing system is needed for vilility of product supply t fir price Commercil lyer frming is not only source of nd to encourge higher production [1]. Due to the high employment, income nd food ut lso criticl to strong popultion growth in Afric nd growing income, the socio-culturl linkge. To meet up the incresing demnd, demnd for eggs nd poultry met hs significntly prt from egg production, efficient egg mrketing is incresed in recent yers cross lrge prts of the necessry.

Ethiopi, one of the most populous countries in scle intensive urn poultry frmers were included for Afric, is huge mrket for poultry, despite the high level the study,these were 33, 27, 34, 37 nd 25 selected chicken popultion. While chicken consumption remined rndomly from Gullele, Bole, Nifsilk-lfto, Akki-klity low for so long t less thn 1 kg per person per yer [4] nd Yek Su-cities, respectively.

However, there is little or no nd trined enumertors. The price of chicken nd eggs reserch conducted on the commercil chicken products were recorded t Christins nd Muslim festivls, on the mrketing system nd constrints. Thus, there is need New Yer celertion nd on the yer round sis t to undertke scientific study on the mrketing system of different mrket centers. All the collected dt were coded poultry products nd identifying the constrints. Hving nd entered into dt se using sttisticl pckge for this in mind the ojective of this study ws to ssess the socil sciences (SPSS).

MATERIALS AND METHODS RESULTS Study Ares: The study ws conducted in Addis A, Min Actors in Purchse of Exotic Poultry Products: the cpitl city of Ethiopi.

Most (47.4%) of the smll scle using two-stge smpling technique. The first stge intensive poultry frmers of the study re sell the dily involved purposive selection of five Su-cities out of the collected eggs to the locl retil shops round their ten Su-cities sed on the prctice nd the vilility residence while 16%, 12.8%, 10.9%, 7.7% nd 5.1% sell to of smll scle intensive poultry frms in those res. the resturnts, collectors, privte consumers, sncks Thus, Gullele, Bole, Nifsilk-lfto, Akki-klity nd Yek houses nd pstries, respectively.

Five exotic chicken eggs mrket chnnels were identified in the study re. The chnnels were: Chnnel one = Producer Consumer Chnnel two = Producer Collector locl retil shops Consumer Chnnel three = Producer Locl retil shops Consumer Chnnel four = Producer Collector (resturnt, pstry & snck house) Customer Chnnel five = Producer (Resturnt, Pstry & Snck house) Customer Mrketing Chnnel three ws found to e the most dominnt egg mrket outlet in the smll scle intensive urn poultry production in the study re. On the other hnd, three mrket chnnels were identified in cse of spent lyers selling. The chnnels were: Chnnel one = Producer Consumer Chnnel two = Producer Collector Consumer Chnnel three = Producer Resturnt Customer Among the three mrket chnnels of spent lyer mrketing, chnnel one ws found to e the dominnt mrket outlet in the study re during depopultion of the spent lyers which usully held during religious festivls nd Ethiopin New Yer celertion time. Mrket Access nd Mens of Trnsporttion for Frm Inputs nd Outputs: Most (59.6%) of the smll scle intensive poultry frmers in the study re stted tht they hve ccess for purchsing poultry frm inputs in their surrounding while the rest (40.4%) hve no ccess in the nery re (Tle 2). On the other hnd, (65.4%) of the interviewed poultry frmers sid tht they hve ccess for selling poultry products t the frm gte, to the locl retil shops, resturnts, collectors nd consumers while (34.6%) of them hd no ccess for selling in the nery re. All (100%) of the interviewed smll scle intensive poultry frmers of the study re purchsed the frm inputs from privte compnies reside in Addis A nd the surrounding towns. For trnsporting frm inputs like feeds nd irds they minly used pulic trnsport (90.4%) nd on foot using hired lour (9.6%). Mjority (85.9%) of the urn smll scle intensive poultry frmers trnsported the dily collected eggs to the mrket center on foot using hnd sket while the rest (14.1%) used pulic trnsport. Preference nd Frequency of Consumption of Poultry Products: The urn smll scle intensive poultry frmers nd the urn consumers of the study re minly preferred locl poultry products for consumption (Tle 3). Mjority (42.3%) of the urn smll scle intensive poultry frmers indicted tht they consume chicken eggs twice week while the urn consumers in resturnts nd sncks houses consume more thn three times week (40%). Both the smll scle intensive poultry frmers nd urn consumers consume chicken met more thn three times yer in prticulr during religious festivls nd on specil occsions. The chi-squre test indicted tht, there ws significnt (P<0.001) difference etween poultry frmers nd urn consumers in the preference nd consumption frequency of chicken eggs. Sesonl Prices of Poultry Products nd Price Trend: The verge price of poultry products t different sesons nd mrket centers is presented in Tle 4. The price of eggs nd spent lyers were significntly (P<0.05) different in different occsions t the frm gte, locl retil shops nd collectors. The sesonl prices of eggs in supermrkets were not vrile (P>0.05) while dressed chicken met prices were significntly vrile (P<0.05). As illustrted in Figure 1, the prices of live locl nd exotic chicken hve een incresing from time to time while the price of dressed chicken met fluctutes. The locl live chicken fetches higher price thn the exotic spent lyer in ll the 5 yers considered. As shown in Figure 2, higher price ws offered for locl chicken eggs thn exotic. But nowdys, the price offered for exotic chicken eggs ecome higher thn the locl chicken eggs. 19
