Cevap

Producers' Cooperative Society

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the primary activity described in the scenario
The farmers are pooling raw agricultural goods (cocoa beans), processing them, and selling the output directly to buyers.
Identifying whether the enterprise operates on the supply/production side or the retail/consumption side determines the cooperative category.
2
Match the function to the correct classification of cooperative societies
An association focused on processing and joint marketing of members' output is classified as a Producers' Cooperative Society.
Producers' cooperatives protect small-scale farmers and artisans from middlemen by securing better market prices for output.
