I searched the term "international agriculture cooperatives" and it
returned the link to a site titled "The Co-operative Information
Superhighway" at www.coop.org.  From the page text there, I found
under the 5th heading on the left of the page, "ICA Specialised
Organizations" the link "agriculture" which led to the home page for
the Co-operative Agricultural Organization.  On that page, I clicked
the Members Directory tab at the top (dark blue) and it returned the
list above.
