Abstract
As the environment and rivalry of Regional Agricultural Cooperatives(RACs) becomes more unfavorable, the pressures to enhance organizational performance are strenghthened. Existing studies suggest efficiency improvement through resource sharing(RS) to fix the issue. In this context, I intend to find if RS still increases organizational performance in another form of organization on the basis of 132 business units(BUs) of 45 RACS. According to empirical results, resource similarity between BUs and resource level of BU increases RS respectively, and RS increases BU's performance. The RS also has mediating effects on similarity and resource level into performance. But the overall resource level of RAC has no influence on RS and there is no mediating effect. My contribution is to confirm the efficacy of RS in half-profit organization and to verify determinants and performance implications of RS.
