25. The brokers ( Sebaba and Jelaba ) are dominated
in markets so they share in purchase and
selling of Hamari Sheep .
According to that livestock marketing is run
through brokers, sheep are said to change
hands a minimum of two and maximum of six
times between points of purchase and the final
points of sale , so this leads to that the terminal
market price may end up at least twice the
purchase price.
