COOPERATIVE AGRICULTURE IN FLORIDA


 "In order to be a true cooperative, however, the de-
cisions emphasize that there must be a legal obligation
on the part of the association, made before the receipt of
income, to return to the members on a patronage basis.
all funds received in excess of the cost of the goods sold.
Such an obligation may arise from the association's arti-
cles of incorporation, its by-laws, or some other contract."
