本报告确定并描述了自1913年以来农业合作社发展的国家趋势，重点是2000年代。随着美国农业合作社数量的减少，以业务量和成员数量为代表的农业合作社规模却在增加。根据1976年至2016年的数据，合作社的总资产和股本一直在增加，预计2017年将继续增长。在美国，平均有2%的合作社被合并或收购。2000-2012年期间并购的平均发生率（33起）低于1980-1999年期间（83起）。随着时间的推移，粮食合作社的数量增加了；乳制品、水果和蔬菜合作社的数量也有所下降。*这项工作是在Iryna Demko担任俄亥俄州立大学农业、环境和发展经济系农业收入增加项目农业综合企业博士后研究员期间进行的。
This report identifies and describes national trends in the progression of agricultural cooperatives since 1913 with an emphasis on 2000s. As the number of agricultural cooperatives in the U.S. has declined, their size, represented by business volume and the number of members, increased. Based on 1976-2016 data, cooperatives’ total assets and equity have been increasing and were projected to grow in 2017. On average, 2% of cooperatives in the U.S. merged or were acquired . Average incidence rates of mergers and acquisitions during 2000-2012 (33 incidences) were lower than during 1980-1999 (83 incidences). Over time, the number of grain cooperatives increased; and the number of dairy and fruit and vegetables cooperatives declined. * This work was performed while Iryna Demko was a Postdoctoral Researcher in Agribusiness with the Farm Income Enhancement Program in the Department of Agricultural, Environmental, and Development Economics at The Ohio State University.
