Abstract: This report describes the methods, procedures, and functional relationships that make up the strategic planning systems of four large farmer cooperatives. Case study analysis of the cooperatives indicates the existence of welldeveloped, comprehensive, and active strategic planning systems. Strategic planning methods or components stressed by the cooperatives include: mission or vision statements; situation/environmental assessment; development of goals and/or objectives and corresponding strategies; implementation programs, projects, or action plans; and strategic planning feedback.
