농협중앙회의 지역농협 경영평가 타당성

Abstract

The National Agricultural Cooperative Federation generally evaluates the management of Agricultural Cooperatives, the member cooperatives, on the basis of regular index at the end of each year, the result of which is advised to related Agricultural Cooperatives and utilized as the basic standard of various instruction and support. The related cooperatives report the evaluation result to the general meeting and board of director so as to enhance the transparency of cooperative management. Based on this evaluation result, the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation awards the prize of excellent management and improved management to the Agricultural Cooperatives.Analyzing the result of managerial evaluation executed by the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation in 2002 to evaluate the managerial efficiency of Agricultural Cooperatives, we found that 909 of total 1,115 Agricultural Cooperatives(81.5%) got high mark over 80 points in managerial evaluation.Meanwhile, with regard to the result of managerial evaluation of Agricultural Cooperatives for the conditions of location, the average mark of urban and rural Agricultural Cooperatives are 90.6 points and 87.0 points respectively, showing slight difference of just 3.6 points. 86.5% (287 units) of urban Agricultural Cooperatives (332 units) and 79.5%(622 units) of rural ones(783 units) got high mark over 80 points in the managerial evaluation. Therefore, it is judged that the evaluation index of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation is inappropriate to evaluate the Agricultural Cooperatives owing to lack of discriminating ability.
