Abstract: Excerpts from the report: The 1954-55 survey of farmer marketing, farm supply, and related service cooperatives shows that their total gross business volume increased 2.2 percent over the previous year and amounted to $12.5 billion. Total net volume, after eliminating duplication resulting from interassociation business, amounted to $9.7 billion, representing an increase of 2.0 percent over 1953-54. The number of cooperatives showed a net decrease of 171, bringing the total down to 9,887 from the 10,058 included in the previous survey. Membership in these cooperatives remained rather stable, totaling 7,603,130 compared with 7,607,660 in 1953-54.
