TACC complied articles that have been gathered from many sources, and in some cases prepared by the Texas Agricultural Cooperative Council, capturing the most concise papers ever written about “cooperatives” and created an easy reference notebook.

DEADLINE EXTENDED: Ever since 2001, TACC has conducted an in-depth compensation study every so often of all general managers and key personnel in cooperatives throughout the state. Earlier this year, hard copy survey forms were sent to all local agricultural co-ops in Texas and are also available for download using the link below.
Please complete the forms by January 10 and return them to co-op CPA Greg Taylor in Lubbock (address is on the survey). Tabulation and analysis of the results will follow shortly thereafter by his office. The every five-year document gets a lot of attention each year it is produced, all in an effort for organizations to stay current.
