| Abstract | Within Nourse’s analysis, cooperatives have a clear-cut role to play where farmers are the victims of monopoly power in input markets or monopsony power in output markets. Nourse was convinced that farmer cooperatives should operate “pilot plants” in this fashion to steer markets to harbors of maximum social benefit for farmers and the general consuming public. |
