The research aimed to identify the efficiency of the performance of agricultural co-operatives in Gharbia Governorate. A random sample was drawn from 200 members of the cooperative in Kutour in 2020/2021. Field data were collected through a personal interview And secondary data from different sources to achieve study aims. The results of the research showed that:

There are 31 multi-purpose agricultural co-operatives in the kutour district that serve a total of 39.11 thousand feddan and it had a membership of about 48.97 thousand members, a total of 3.4 million Egyptian pounds capital. There are 17 multi-purpose Livestock co-operatives in the kutour district that had a membership of about 4,480 members, a total of 201.91 thousand Egyptian pounds capital.
Most of the offices and storage spaces of agricultural co-operatives are not suitable for co-operative work.
The co-operatives play a limited role in securing farm machinery for their members.
The marketing role of the co-operatives is limited to securing production requirements.
About 43% of the sample has a neutral attitude towards the multi-purpose co-operative and about 40% of the sample has a negative attitude towards the livestock co-operatives.
Multiplicity of supervising agencies, the weak infrastructure of agricultural cooperatives, in addition to the low number of administrative cadres, the lack of cooperative awareness among members, and the low financial return are the most problems facing the co-operating.

Recommendation:
The study recommended expanding the establishment of agricultural projects and marketing services, providing the necessary administrative cadres for each association, spreading cooperative thinking, unifying the authority to supervise agricultural cooperatives, and developing cooperative offices and storage spaces.
