How Farmers Will Benefit

When a farmer joins a cooperative, they benefit through earnings returned on a patronage basis.For example, a farmer-member who accounts for 10 percent of the volume of produce delivered to the cooperative would receive 10 percent of the net earnings derived from the handling, processing, marketing and sale of that produce or related products. Such patronage dividends help boost the income of farmers directly or by reducing the effective cost of the goods and services provided.
