Abstract: This report analyzes the crop protectant operations of 383 local farm supply and marketing cooperatives. They were surveyed about their 1999 crop protectant sales, source of product, competitors and type of competition, and services offered or desired to offer. Questions focused on global positioning and geographic information systems in crop protectant use and application. Most questions were similar to ones in a 1996 fertilizer survey. That facilitated comparisons. Crop protectant sales trends for these cooperatives during the past 9 years were compared to the prior survey. Data from 10 standard U.S. farm production regions and 4 cooperative sizes and types were compiled.
