Introduction:
1.1 Background to the Study.
Today, in an era when people feel powerless to change their lives, Cooperatives represent a
strong, vibrant and viable economic alternative. Cooperatives are formed to meet people’s
mutual needs. They are based on the powerful idea that together, a group of people can achieve
goals none of them could achieve alone.
For over 160 years now, Cooperatives have been an effective way for people to exert control
over their economic livelihood. They provide unique tool for achieving one or more economic
goals in an increasingly competitive global economy. As governments around the world cut
services and withdraw from regulating markets, Cooperatives are being considered useful
mechanisms to manage risk for members in agricultural or other similar Cooperatives, help
salary/wage earners save for the future through a soft felt monthly contribution that is deducted
from source, own what might be difficult for individuals to own by their efforts, strengthen the
communities in which they operates through job provisions and payment of local taxes.
From the 1950s to mid 1980s, Cooperatives played a central role in the economic planning of
post-colonial nation States and other development countries. Cooperatives were target for
considerable amount of development assistance. This aid did produce some self-sustaining
Agricultural Cooperatives especially for farmers close to Urban Markets or who were
strategically placed for exporting their produce (Joseph.G.Knapp 1962).
Ado-Odo/Ota is plague by high illiteracy rate and insufficient investment in agriculture. As a
result, participation in global market is limited, further perpetuating the cycle of poverty. It has
been suggested by the international community that concerted efforts be made towards building
individual and institutional capacities in developing nations.
