LBMs were described based on demographic features provided by market managers: days of the month and time of the day during which LBMs were open, average number of sellers, and seasonal variations. Sellers were classified as retailers or wholesalers if they reported selling most birds to consumers or traders, respectively. Markets were classified as either retail or wholesale markets if more than two thirds of sellers were retailers or wholesalers. Markets that did not fall into one of these categories were classified as mixed.
