Abstract

Excerpts from the report: This report covers results of a study of the lawn and garden services and supplies of 15 local affiliates of 3 regional farm supply cooperatives in the East. The decline of farm acreage around large cities is presenting problems and challenges to farm supply cooperatives in these areas. Many desire information on the possibilities of adding lawn and garden items to offset declining farm supply volumes and to help maintain services to their remaining farmer members. Objectives of the study, therefore, were to determine: (1) Facilities, policies, practices, and type of operation essential for successful lawn and garden services; and (2) the place of lawn and garden operations in farm supply cooperatives, including possible benefits to member-patrons and problems that may be encountered.
