This study conducted the positive analysis of 158 agricultural cooperatives in Taiwan during 2000 to 2002. The model of panel data of Battese and Coelli (1995) in Frontier 4.1 software was used to estimate the impact of Hakka and Non-hakka Community on the productivity of agricultural cooperatives and inefficiency index of individual agricultural cooperative. The differences between Hakka and Non-hakka Community, and the relations between inefficiency index and profits of individual agricultural cooperative were also evaluated in this study. According to the positive results, they have showed that agricultural cooperatives of Hakka Community have the cost efficiency of management. They also indeed could affect the management profits. The possible reason is the effect of their organizational culture and united cooperation. If every agricultural cooperative could promote its technical efficiency, the whole profits might be improved or increased. And at last, their productivity and competition could be enhanced.
