No 315994, Farmer Cooperative Research Report (FCRR) from United States Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service

Abstract: Excerpts from the report: The management job in most farmer cooperatives has become increasingly complex. Thus the need for professional management men with specialized training to handle specialized jobs is more acute. Farmer Cooperative Service undertook a study to get an inventory of just what management training was being offered in farmer cooperatives. It hopes this study will stimulate (1) improvement in management training methods and (2) expansion of training programs to cooperatives where no management training is given. This study covered managers, their key assistants, and boards of directors since they are all involved in policy decisions and management of cooperatives.
