The evolutionary context of the agrarian sector in France led the agrarian cooperatives to create groups of companies that combine the traditional cooperatives, responsible for the production process, with subsidiaries to add value to production. This article shows the specificity of the agrarian cooperative groups in France. The new cooperative structure leads to a connection between the associative governance mode of the traditional structure and the equity governance mode of the subsidiaries in a hybrid mode that gives rise to an identity crisis for this type of company.

Keywords: agriculture, cooperatives, agrarian cooperatives, France, governance.
