The population consisted of all members of agricultural cooperatives (N=2084). Using multi stage random sampling procedure and Cochran’s formula, (n=120) members were selected as sample. The validity of the questionnaire was established by a panel of experts from the faculty members of Economics as well as Management and Agricultural Development Departments at the University of Tehran.
