      abstract = {This paper is intended to outline the pattern of  co-operativization practised in the co-operative farming  experiments in Bangladesh. Results of the analysis gave  rise to some hypotheses demanding micro-research. It has  been pointed out that land reforms seem to be necessary for  homogenizing the farm size and tenancy relations in order  to ensure equity in returns to land and son-land factors in  co-operative farming. Examples indicate that present forms  of collectivization prior to mechanization can produce some  "indirect" effects through better loan use, easy access  input to and extension service, while the size effect on  productivity may be non-spectacular or negative due to  initial dis-economies. The paper concludes that goal  conflicts between heterogeneous member groups can be  tackled in the short run by limiting the level of  collectivization.},
