Agricultural sector constitutes to be the most dominant sector in Indian economy particularly in rural India. Even today agriculture in India is greatly dependent on monsoon and traditional farming methods. Need of finance and marketing assistance is a challenge faced by farmers. In order to address these issues the government has taken several initiatives for establishment of primary co-operative societies and taluk level co-operative societies. These societies are providing various marketing facilities and financial assistance to farmers.However, in order to ensure these co-operative societies are able to deliver required services to farmers effectively, a need for an analysis of their performance becomes necessary. Thus, the study aims at analyzing the financial performance of TAPCMS, Koppa and comparing its performance with another leading co-operative society, i.e., TAPCMS, Mudigere which are two leading primary cooperative societies of Chickmaglur District.
