Therefore, it is necessary to reframe the exitsting structure of primary agricultural cooperatives so as to enhance the competitiveness in terms of management efficiency. However, There are many problems to be solved such as overnumbered staffs compared with decreasing number of farming population, unbalanced ratio between executive officials and lower-level officials, complexity of position-ranking system resulting from unclearness of official title and office regulations, and management right excessively concentrated on cooperative leader. The suggested measures for such problems are as follows; 1) attaining the economy size of agricultural cooperaitves in line with decreasing rural community, 2) fostering the on-the job training programs and the personnel administration according to job competency, 3) merging the small primary cooperatives into larger units with efficiency, 4) specializing the cooperative business based on their regional comparative advantage, 5) maintaining the rational adjustment between elected cooperative leader's management right and responsibility.

With the acceleration of regional economic integration, the agricultural trade network within the RCEP region presents new opportunities and challenges for member countries. This study focuses on agricultural trade among RCEP members from 2011 to 2020, utilizing social network analysis to explore the structural characteristics and evolutionary trends of the trade network. Additionally, an extended gravity model is employed to empirically analyze the key factors influencing South Korea's agricultural trade with other member countries. The findings reveal that: (1) Agricultural trade relationships within the RCEP region are stable and mature, with high interconnectivity in the trade network, indicating a trend towards balanced development. (2) The positions of member countries within the agricultural trade network are characterized by both high density and heterogeneity. (3) South Korea's agricultural trade with RCEP member countries is positively influenced by the economic size, population size, and governance level of its trading partners, while South Korea's own indicators show no significant effect. The trade distance between South Korea and member countries also has a positive impact on agricultural trade. By combining social network analysis with an extended gravity model, this study provides a multi-faceted quantitative analysis of the RCEP agricultural trade network, offering new insights into regional agricultural trade. It also provides empirical evidence for agricultural trade cooperation between South Korea and other RCEP countries.

Purpose: The research aims at examining the impact of marketer capabilities and persistence on marketer performance and distribution of agricultural product facilities. Research design, data, and methodology: The research employs quantitative methods using a cross-sectional design survey by analyzing the marketer of agricultural production facilities. Sampling was done using the purposive sampling technique and data were taken from 235 respondents. The data were then processed using SEM-PLS. Results: The findings reveal that both marketer capabilities and marketer persistence significantly impact the performance of agricultural product facility marketers. Notably, marketer persistence exerts a more dominant influence on marketer performance than marketer capabilities. Effective communication and coordination between the sales team and the distribution center emerge as crucial factors determining the success of distributing agricultural equipment to reach farmers' land at the optimal time. Conclusions: The findings offer valuable managerial insights for agricultural product facility companies seeking to enhance marketer performance. To achieve this, companies should focus on increasing marketer persistence, with an emphasis on nurture-focused persistence rather than closure-focused persistence. Additionally, improving marketer capabilities is crucial, starting with relationship development, followed by trust building, customer retention, responsiveness, and acquisition. These strategies can collectively contribute to boosting marketer performance within the organization.

협동조합기본법이 시행되고 농업 부문에서 협동조합 법인들이 활발하게 설립되고 있다. 이들 '농업 분야 협동조합'은 법률적 의미의 농업법인으로 인정받지 못하고 있다. 협업적 농업을 추구한다는 점과 1인 1표제로 대표되는 민주적 의사결정의 원칙을 따른다는 점에서, '농업 분야 협동조합'과 농업법인의 일종인 영농조합법인의 기원, 조직 구성 및 운영의 원리, 조직의 목적 등이 유사하거나 동일한 부분이 많다. 그럼에도 '농업 분야 협동조합'이 농업법인으로 인정되지 않기 때문에 현실에서는 법률적 형평성 문제가 여럿 제기될 수 있다. 두 유형의 법인들 사이에 발생할 수 있는 형평성 문제를 '농지 소유 및 이용에 관한 권리', '조세 감면 조치의 대상', '농업 정책의 대상 자격 및 규제 특례'라는 세 측면에서 살펴보았다. '농업 분야 협동조합' 법인을 농업법인의 일종으로 간주하여 형평성 문제를 완화하는 법제 개선이 필요하다. "농어업 농어촌 및 식품산업기본법"과 "농어업경영체 육성 및 지원에 관한 법률"을 비롯하여 수십 종의 관련 법률과 그 하위 시행령, 시행규칙, 행정지침 등을 개정해야 한다.
