By a roll call vote of 13 to 7, members of the Farmers Union Cooperative Elevator federation rejected a proposal to affiliate with the Farmers National Cooperative Corporation. The vote outcome ends any immediate moves toward the broader cooperative linkage within the local union framework. The decision preserves the federation’s independent structure and its current operational alignment.
