Regional and in terregional grain cooperatives increased grain volume by 65 percent during fiscal years 1977-81, from 1.8 billion bushels to 3 billion bushels, ac cording to U.S. Department of Agriculture economists. More than four-fifths of this increase was in response to the sharp rise in export demand, according to economists Stanley K. Thurston and David E. Cummins, of USDA’s Agricultural Cooperatives Service. Major facility im provements and the streamlining of organizational structure helped cooperatives respond to the challenge, they said. Principal grains handled continued to be com, nearly 1.4 billion bushels; wheat, 819 million bushels; and soybeans, 602 million bushels. Others were grain sorghum, 166 million bushels; barley, 44 million; sunflower seed, 23 million; oats, 17 million; and rye and flaxseed, 7 million bushels. In fiscal year 1981, 16 primary regional and 3 interregional grain cooperatives disposed of their gram by processing 6 percent in their own plants, selling 27 percent to domestic outlets, and shipping 67 percent to ports for export. The proportion shipped to port areas has been rising steadily, from 55 percent in 1976 to 62 percent in 1978 and 1979, to 67 percent in 1981. Export disposition by cooperatives in fiscal year 1981 was slightly more than 2 billion bushels, compared with 1.5 years earlier and 1 billion in fiscal year 1977.
