Abstract
Due to demand concentration and supermarket expansion, agricultural producers are more and more vulnerable to purchasers and processors. So that fruits-vegetables branch could operate effectively, agricultural producers should act jointly where Producer Organisation [Termelői Értékesítő Szervezet (TÉSZ)] is a possible form of this. These organisations play a significant role not only for agricultural producers but also for rural economy. In our research we examine the economic, technological and personal benefits as well as the inhibitory factors of cooperation via Garden TÉSZ Ltd. On the basis of the interview with the members and the executive director we can state that the most important advantages for the farmers are the secure outlet market provided by the cooperative and the post harvest activity. Furthermore, the cooperative also contributes to the expansion of rural employment.
