I enjoyed this film as well. I belong to four Coop groups . The Sunderland Feed Coop, The Eastgen Breeders Coop, Gaye Lea milk processing coop , and Dairy Farmers of Ontario Which is a milk marketing Coop. All of the coops that I deal with are farmer run , with farmers sitting on the board of directors. These four coop I belong to are very different in that they are free standing business , and do not participate with day to day work on my farm , as in the film . The profitability of my farm is greatly enhanced by the success of these Coops. Two of these Coops pay out dividends on shares held annually , the feed and the processing coops. The ones that dislike the coop system the most , are people that want to compete against them , coops work very well for their members. One thing I noticed in the film , almost every man smoked, now , very few smoke around here. I don't think I can name one dairy farmer that smokes anymore . Back in the 70's , it was the other way around . Bruce
