Dagum distribution is considered. Bayesian method of estimation is employed in order to estimate the shape parameter of Dagum distribution by using quasi and gamma priors. In this paper, the Bayes estimators of the shape parameter have been obtained under squared error, precautionary and weighted loss functions.
