farming cooperative
Shared agricultural enterprise
A farming cooperative is an organization owned and operated by farmers who pool resources, share equipment, or collectively market their products.
Members benefit from economies of scale—buying supplies in bulk, accessing larger markets, or sharing costly machinery that individual farms couldn't afford alone: The farming cooperative negotiated better prices for seed and fertilizer.
