Abstract
Owners of livestock in Honduras have tried to organize themselves to negotiate milk prices, develop regional and export markets for their products, and address technical problems that arise. These attempts to organize have had uneven results. This Social Analysis Systems (SAS) case study examines member assessment of the milk producer’s co-op to arrive at a consensus that would help ensure that newer members of the organization appreciate the history and struggles of older members. This would encourage a sense of belonging among all members, enabling it to move forward in initiating new negotiations.
