Gross returns and net returns<br />

Aratdars have the highest absolute gross and net returns, monthly returns being estimated as Tk<br />

42,750 and Tk 34,154 respectively. Of all the actors, relatively the Aratdars, again, have the<br />

highest proportion of gross or net returns (around 31-32%), followed by wholesalers (around 20-<br />

21%), Boro Mahajans (around 14%) and Choto Mahajans (7-8%). As usual, collectors have the<br />

lowest proportions of both gross and net returns (6-7%). In absolute terms, the Aratdars have net<br />

income more than 5 times as much compared to that earned by collectors.<br />

The data on working capital for shrimp large (galda) were not available so that net returns on<br />

investments have not been estimated.<br />
