Abstract

Excerpts from the report: The 8,593 farmer marketing, purchasing, and service cooperatives in the United States owned or leased an estimated 37,000 motortrucks as of January 1, 1967—an average of 4.3 trucks per association. Compared with an estimated 33,000 trucks on January 1, 1961, the number of trucks operated by farmer cooperatives increased about 12 percent during the past 6 years. In comparison, total U.S. truck registrations were 15.5 million in 1966, an increase of 30 percent over the 1960 total of 11.9 million. Cooperative trucks as a percentage of total registered U.S. trucks declined from 0.3 percent in 1960 to 0.2 percent in 1966. This report gives the results of a study on the number, type, and distribution of motortrucks owned or leased by farmer cooperatives in the United States. The study was based on responses to a questionnaire that was sent to cooperatives.
