Abstract

 From a development perspective, agricultural production cooperatives as cooperative farms can become, first and foremost, large-scale farms, with many economic and social advantages. In particular, large farms are increasingly striving for scientific and technological progress. It is easier for them to withstand unfavorable natural and economic factors, solve problems of rural social development, etc. Compared to other forms of management, production cooperatives are fully in line with the characteristics of agriculture and the interests of the peasants. Although the welfare of the workers, as in other enterprises with management leverage, is formed at the expense of wages and income from private land, the labor form of income in the cooperative is more clearly manifested. In the socio-economic conditions of business, we can expect a reduction in the number of CCs or their transformation into an economic society, the creation of small enterprises, peasant farms on their basis, or their other distribution among entrepreneurial entities.

 The study found that the main factors that negatively affect the financial condition of agricultural organizations are: low prices of products sold; Price inequality in industrial and agricultural products sold and purchased; Underdeveloped market infrastructure; Weak government support, etc.
