A total of 60 local farmers' associations are classified to 14 urban type farmers' association, 43 rural type farmers' associations and 3 remote type farmers' associations according to the urbanized condition of located area, cultivated area, farming population, etc. The Report of Seventh Congress in second time of Farmers' Association to their member's representatives was used as analytical materials. The results indicated that the full member of urban and rural type farmers' association were around 4200 - 4300, but the associate member of urban type farmers' association were 3500 which were 2.5 times higher than rural type farmers' association. The full member and associate member in remote farmers' association were 2600 and 155 only. The employee in urban, rural and remote type farmers' association were about 100, 64 and 37, respectively. The net income of urban, rural and remote farmers' association were 580171000, 269584000 and 58467000, respectively. Almost all net income came from credit department of farmers' association. The insurance department had very few net income. The economic department was in debt condition except the remote farmers' association. About 84% of agricultural extension service expense of remote farmers' association was from the government subsides and special projects. In rural type farmers' association, 27% and 50% of the agricultural extension service budget came from government subsides and their own allocated profit from previous year. For urban type farmers' association, more than 84% of their agricultural extension service income were from the allocated profit of previous year. The results also indicated that the analysis on financial sturcture and management efficacy were very healthy. Most indexes were not over the suggested standards. In consideration on the successful and long-term development, some recommendations are made as followings: 1. The economic department of each farmers' association should be reorganized and combined to a industrial unity in order to reduce production costs, enlarge working scales and strengthen functions.2. More insurance activities, such as farmer life insurance, could be considered in order to benefit the farmers.3. It is suggested to establish a national agricultural financial unit by reorganizing the credit department of each local farmers' association.4. The agricultural extension activities should be adjusted in order to meet the real needs of farmers.
