Large experience is gained in the development of agricultural cooperatives in advanced countries of the European Union by functioning in changing market conditions and facing a continuous competition. A certain positive experience in the field of cooperation is obtained by Lithuanian farmers, too. In Latvia and in other new member states of the European Union, the activity of cooperatives is underestimated in spite of the wide reforms held in the agrarian sector. The paper reflects the conductive factors of efficiency of Lithuanian, Austrian and German dairy processors' associations, and the British machinery rings. The main aim of this paper is to find out the work experience of agricultural cooperatives in the European Union countries to promote the development of cooperatives in Latvia. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
