Agriculture board management on Mithaq

Farming cooperatives, agricultural councils, fisheries boards.

What a agriculture board is accountable for

An agricultural cooperative is owned by the same people who sell to it and buy from it, so the price it sets is simultaneously a commercial decision and a distribution of value between members. One member, one vote, regardless of tonnage, is the rule that keeps that honest and the rule most often quietly broken.

What recurs on the agenda

  1. 01Producer pricing and the pooling formula, with the member-benefit calculation shown
  2. 02Surplus distribution or patronage refund, and the basis on which it is apportioned
  3. 03Membership admission, suspension and the one-member-one-vote register
  4. 04Seasonal credit, input supply and the exposure the cooperative carries to its own members
  5. 05Quota, licence and catch or harvest reporting to the supervising authority
The dispute that reaches a cooperative board is nearly always about whether a member was treated the same as another member. The register and the minute answer it or they do not.

Powered by the Mithaq core

Agriculture tenants run on Mithaq's 42 universal governance modules: meetings, decisions, audit trail, members, documents, contracts, budget, accounts and the rest. Sector-specific modules appear here when we onboard the first customer in the sector; we do not advertise a module before it ships.
