In the particular case of the olive oil sector in Spain, the commercialization of the product and the restricted role
of the productive sector in the distribution of that product raise significant questions about the value added by the
cooperatives. This, in turn, has ramifications for the incomes of the farmers. The farmers do not actively
participate in the commercialization of their product. Their focus is on delivering their olives to the cooperative
for a certain price, and they do not have a role in the important issues that proceed from the time that the olives
arrive at the cooperative until the olive oil is sold to the final consumer. Because most of the cooperatives were
founded many years ago, they are not well adapted to modern market requirements in an open, competitive,
global environment.
