Chapter 5 & 5
Further my previous comments; geographically some areas reginal economy is state land commercial crops. People are daily workers and low wages. So, they do not have purchasing power to buy high value good quality fish and mostly eat dried small fish species. Difficulties in distribution systems triggered this situation further.
Inefficiency in distribution chain also contribute to increase the final price which is not affordable to many people of the country especially in the rural areas.
Lack of product diversification at the market hindered the food choice and persuasion to eat fish.
