No 314776, Farmer Cooperative Research Report (FCRR) from United States Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service

Abstract: Excerpt from the report: An estimated 50,000 cotton growers of this country are increasing their returns from cottonseed by owning and operating their own cottonseed oil mills on a cooperative basis. In some cases individual farmers have set up the cooperative mill. In others cooperative cotton gins, made up of individual growers, have formed the organization. Still others have both individual producers and cooperative gins as members. This report will give in some detail information on the organization, services, operating methods, and policies of these organizations and the technical processes involved in crushing cottonseed.
