Excerpt from the report: Part I of this handbook gives information for 25 major regional farm supply cooperatives in the United States for their fiscal years ending in 1952 and 1953. Although there is wide variation in the forms of organization, methods of operation, and accounting and reporting practices followed by these associations, every effort has been made to present information on a comparable basis. These associations, each normally doing more than $5 million farm supply business, are listed according to the amount of their wholesale and retail supply business for 1953. Part II summarizes information for the group.
