"The overall objective of the study is to analyze role and functions of MPCSs in agricultural input/output marketing in Eastern Tigray Zone of Ethiopia. In order to see the role of cooperatives, it was preferred to give emphasis on evaluating their overall performances and members’ participation as well as perceived problems in using the available services. Simple percentage analysis, ratio analysis, descriptive and econometrics model were employed to identify determining factors of the role of cooperatives in performing their activities as well as participation of the members. With regard to organizational performances, the cooperatives have their own working procedures and systems, by-laws, employees and boards, and working areas. Ratios were analyzed taking the five years financial data (2002 and 2006). The liquidity analysis, financial leverage and profitability ratio showed that the over all performance of cooperatives under investigation were weak or below the desirable level. T-test and result showed significant difference in the age, Livestock ownership, crop production, annual income, expenditure, input purchased, share capital contribution between the mean of two sample groups at less than 10 per cent probability level, and Chi-square test result: sex, access to input/credit, membership, educational status, and so on showed that significant differences between the two sample groups at less than 10 per cent probability level.".
