INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Study
Organizations whether profit seeking or non-profit seeking is established to achieve other primary objectives or goals of the owners (Ray 2003). In attempt to attain these objectives, both humans and material resources are mobilized and assigned task and responsibilities for human efficiency.
Cooperative can be defined as an, autonomous association of persons united voluntarily to meet their socio-economic, cultural needs and aspirations through a jointly owned and democratically controlled enterprises (I.C.A 2000) agricultural cooperative is different from other business organization as evident in it’s practice and value as entrenched in it’s principles. This principle makes cooperative to be of impact toward economic enhancement of rural area.
Agricultural has played a significant role in 90’s to 20’s when it largely produced food and raw materials, and were the sources of foreign exchange in Nigeria. Agricultural product for both local consumption and export that are produces by rural farmers cannot be over emphasized; food input in (1990’s) 2010’s counted for small proportion of the total input bill by 2010 to date. The input bills for food have risen, thus trend can be contributed primarily to neglect of rural farmers. This resulted to their migration to urban centers for greater posture. The rural farmers are represented by the small family holdings with usually small size of farm lead simple implement is employed which result in law output, the use of modern techniques is only by few of them and backwardness of using modern techniques is due to non-availability of financial capability and alternatives.

In order to stimulate the agricultural sector there is need for change and support from government. These rural farmers are important and necessary, because the position change can make the rural, farmers dynamic. Granting of government loan, farm inputs as well as dissemination of information can result high output too. The revolutionalization of agricultural cooperative society can facilitate the activities of farmers through effective production processing, marketing and distribution of agricultural product.
1.2Â Statement of the Problem
Role of Agricultural cooperative focuses on the improvement of agricultural products which lead to agricultural enhancement of any community there by making significant impact towards the economic and socio-cultural enhancement of that community, which is the main objective of establishment of agricultural cooperatives.
Most agricultural cooperative have failed to achieve this target objective as a result of poor government policies. When it comes to the issue of agricultural cooperative, government fails to understand that cooperative society play an important role in eradicating poverty in the country. Less attention is given to agricultural sector of other economic due to the oil boom of 2000’s. This is why today, Nigeria imports most of foods they can produce in their own land most especially rice.
Agricultural cooperative are societies organized to assist farmers to go into large scale farming by providing agricultural inputs like fertilizer, pesticide, insecticide, physical cash (loan) e.t.c. This is meant to facilitate the enhancement of the rural areas since agriculture is their basis of live-hood. However, the extent to which such agricultural cooperatives are achieving this is questionable since most rural farmers have little or no access to such inputs.
It is a well known fact that every organization facing some problems that would hinder it’s activities to move as expected, this is no exception in agricultural cooperatives apart from the government policies, poor extension services that will create more awareness, poor management and accounting system, another major problem is illiteracy of the members which is also a major concern since cooperatives is not to contribute money alone, but it includes human resources that members require to be literate.
However, there is need for cooperatives extension workers to create awareness so as to educate the rural dwellers on issues regarding agricultural cooperatives that will equally give the farm inputs, this will helps the rural dwellers to know the real concept of agricultural cooperatives and how it can positively affect their production.
