中文摘要：

大力发展农产品流通领域农民合作组织,提升合作组织在农产品流通中的服务水平是解决我国＂小农户＂与＂大市场＂矛盾的关键。农产品流通领域农民合作组织的功能定位体现为通过发挥合作组织流通服务功能削弱农户进入市场、参与市场竞争的功能性缺陷,其发展动因在于获取规模效应、降低流通成本,谋求市场均衡、增进农户福利,促进产销对接、维系渠道稳定,增进信息沟通、提高交易效率。农产品流通领域农民合作组织发展路径选择不仅依赖于合作组织现状及政策制度环境,更依赖于合作组织的发展目标与任务,由于我国农民合作组织的弱质性和脆弱性,农产品流通领域合作组织发展路径选择应坚持＂市场拉动和政府推动相结合、完善服务功能和消除服务供求的结构性失衡相结合、提升流通绩效和协调流通主体间关系相结合＂的原则,走内生和外引双驱型发展道路。

英文摘要：

Developing farmer marketing cooperative and improving cooperative＇ s service level become the key factors to solve the conflicts between ＂small farms＂ and ＂big market＂ in China. Marketing cooperative refers to the professional economic organization organized by farmers from disadvantaged farms based on the principles of cooperative in order to achieve the efficiency through large-scale processing and marketing of agricultural products. Cooperative can also help small farms to compete with commercial agricultural marketing enterprises. Its functions include reducing the functional defects of farmer entering the market and participating in market competition by performing certain marketing fimctions in the system. The motivations of farmer cooperative are to obtain the scale effect, promote market equilibrium, reduce the cost of marketing and increase farmers＇ welfare, help connecting production and consumption in the market, maintain market stability, enhance information communication, and improve the efficiency of the marketing system. The development path for farmer cooperative depends not only on the current status of cooperative and policy environment, but also on the vision and goals of itself. The development path selection of marketing cooperative should follow the principles of 1） duel choices of market driven and government promoting; 2） duel choices of improving the service functions and solving the structural unbalanced situation between the demanded and supplied services from cooperative; and 3） duel choices of enhancing marketing efficiency and smoothing relationships among the different marketing entities. Due to the immaturity and vulnerability of farmer cooperative in China, the overall development path of farmer rnarketing cooperative should take a path with dual driven system of both internal and external forces.
