Combining Agricultural Cooperatives- Some Notes On Procedures And Alternatives

Abstract

Unification of two or more cooperative operations may be accomplished by acquisition of the assets, liabilities and member equity of one organization by another; by merger of one organization into another; or by consolidation of both organizations into a new organization. The major purpose of a unification is to combine memberships, member business and member investments to form a larger, stronger association of farmers. The end results as far as name, wording of the articles and by-laws, board size, method of representing members and capital structure can be the same regardless of the unification method used.
