October is #NationalCoopMonth, when we recognize the value that co-ops bring to their members and communities. This 1961 graphic, published in a guide for members, shows how Farm Credit’s borrower-owners share control of the #FarmCredit System. “Since it is a cooperative system,” the guide explains, “it is important that all members…particularly new members…have a good understanding of how it operates.” #TBT #Ag #ThrowbackThursday #Coop Source: Federal Land Bank System: How it Operates (1961)
