description This study was conducted to investigate the production cooperatives activities in terms of economic, social and environmental dimensions and their member's participation in cooperative activities. This study used a survey research method to conduct the research. Data were collectedby a questionnaire. Face validity of the instrument confirmed by a group of faculty members of agricultural extension and education at Shiraz University. Also, Chronbach Alpha (077-0.84) was gained for the reliability. The research sample consisted of 110 wheat farmers by using simple random sampling. Research hypothesis tested through SPSS software v.16.
