How do cooperative rebates and asset specificity impact operating performance of farmer cooperatives? evidence from China.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Improving farmer cooperatives' operating performance is essential for their economic sustainability and for promoting sustainable agricultural development. Despite the prominent role of benefit distribution and asset specificity in cooperation organizations, their impact on performance remains controversial, and the relationship between the three is unclear. This study focuses on cooperative benefit distribution in terms of their rebates (first and second rebates) and investigates the relationship between asset specificity, cooperative rebate and operating performance. The results show that both the first and second rebates have a positive impact on operating performance and play substitutive roles in increasing operating performance. Physical asset specificity (PAS) impacts first rebates positively, whereas human asset specificity (HAS) impacts first rebates negatively. PAS has a positive effect on operating performance whereas HAS has no significant influence on operating performance. Furthermore, the first rebate mediates the relationship between PAS and operating performance and suppresses the relationship between HAS and operating performance. These findings provide support for developing relevant policies to improve cooperative performance and sustainability.
