The agricultural market-wholesaler system was introduced to the Gangseo wholesale market in June 2004 and now 52 agricultural market-wholesalers were operating. As one of the important wholesale market players, agricultural market-wholesaler has been studied by many researchers. Most of the research papers focus on agricultural market-wholesaler, in order to discuss the market-purchasing system by comparing it with the auction system. However, the academic discussion about the management efficiency of agricultural market-wholesaler is rare. The purpose of this research is to analyze the management efficiency of agricultural market-wholesaler and to figure out the way of improving the management efficiency of agricultural market-wholesaler with inefficient management efficiency. DEA was used to analyze the agricultural marketwholesaler's management efficiency. According to the DEA analysis, 8 agricultural marketwholesaler were found to be efficient in management under CRS conditions, 12 agricultural market-wholesalers with efficient management under VRS conditions, and 8 agricultural marketwholesalers with efficient scale efficiency. As a result of analyzing management efficiency by using the Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test by dividing agricultural market-wholesalers into two groups, it was suggested that agricultural market-wholesalers can improve management efficiency by promoting projects that can improve relations with farmers who ship to agricultural marketwholesalers and enhance mutual cooperation.
