Abstract: At present, the prevailing approach to cooperatives as a form of entrepreneurship is in line with the dominant paradigm of economic efficiency in society. Without denying the partial correctness of this approach, we wish to reveal the non-commercial aspects of the activities of cooperatives, to which the classics of cooperative thought paid attention in those times. Therefore, the study was conducted to identify the singularity of economic cooperation in cooperatives for processing and marketing of agricultural products. The article is prepared on the basis of materials of sociological research carried out in 2016-2018. To 2018 The research method in 2018 was the case study. As a result, three forms of economic interaction are identified, which differ from the usual economic behavior of the reseller involved in the purchase and resale of agricultural products. Based on the results obtained, we can conclude that cooperatives keep a non-profit component aimed at protecting the interests of agricultural producers participating in cooperation.
