DATA COLLECTION
 Primary Data:

Questionnaire  Secondary Data: Newspaper books brochure reference material

RESEARCH CONCLUSION
 The production, supply and distribution of many

agricultural commodities are controlled by the government and only forwards and futures trading are permitted in certain commodity items.  The most things I have seen are that the awareness of future commodity trading is still not there.  People who knows, they believe that operators and big players in the market drive this future commodity market.

 Most of the people still fear regarding the quality of

commodity if they wish to take physical delivery.  The delivery centers of commodities are very less in India compare to other developed countries.  People still believe that investing in commodity market is very risky.  The whole industry is highly sensitive towards national and international’s environmental and political factors

SUGGESTIONS
Commodity options
The warehousing and standardization

Cash versus physical settlement
Tax and legal bottlenecks
