To pay both the "green credit ", which provided seed and fertilizer with the later harvest, as well as the common crop marketing and the locally-managed savings and loan associations were introduced in accordance with its proposals in many villages of Germany. At least seven farmers were required to establish village cooperatives to purchase or sales. To negotiate effectively, and make it inexpensive to purchase seed and fertilizer, the cooperative statutes unlimited liability by all the assets of the members called for first. After the first phase of the guarantees success on the ability of the board members and after saving forms of cooperative assets on this common wealth were limited.
