Cooperative Fluid Milk Processing: A Perspective of Opportunities and Problems

James B. Roof

No 312970, Research Reports from United States Department of Agriculture, Rural Development

Abstract: Three successful and three less successful specialized fluid milk processing cooperatives were compared to determine if there were consistent differences in operating and financial policies and other selected factors. Successful cooperatives’ management consistently made use of carefully planned capital investments and members allowed their cooperatives to build adequate member equity to finance feasible and profitable projects.
