Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The economic growth models implemented by humanity to meet their endless needs at the expense of disrupting the ecological and social balance have brought existing resources to the point of exhaustion. Therefore, a plan needs to be made so that we can look to the future with hope again. It is not a coincidence that the search for a new planning in the new world order led us to cooperatives. Because it is indisputable that a new construction process for all humanity can only be achieved through a system based on cooperation, solidarity and trust. Despite the large number of agricultural cooperatives in our country, they still cannot show the success expected from them. In addition to the existing problems of the agricultural supply market, there are also some problems arising from legislation, organization and financing. The aim of this study is, first of all, to determine what needs to be done before starting the process of establishing a cooperative in order to implement cooperatives correctly and effectively in our country, to determine a road map for agricultural producers who have entered the path of cooperatives, and to offer solutions to the current problems of agricultural cooperatives. Keywords: Agricultural Sector, Producers, Organization, Cooperatives, Economic Development.
