Abstract

Excerpts from the report: This study is the first in a broad research program designed to: (a) Evaluate the nature and adequacy of services available to low-income farmers through cooperatives, giving particular attention to factors such as costs of providing various types of services, actual and potential volume, and problems in extension of credit; (b) evaluate the policies and practices of cooperatives having a high level of participation by low-income farmers, in order to provide policy and operating guides for other cooperatives in low-income areas; and (c) determine potentials for expanded, more effective services for low-income farm and nonfarm rural people. This first study examines the operations of two cooperatives in Appalachia with contrasting performances in serving low-income farmers.
