It is a federation of 43 Primary cooperatives and 2 district cooperative (Sindhuli and Ramechap) unions representing about 7626 individual farmers. JCCU has the mandate to advise and provide services to the district unions, the primary cooperatives and its members. JCCU is active in networking and lobbying with district, zonal and national government and third parties. Furthermore JCCU initiates, organizes and monitors the investment they are doing on behalf of the members. JCCU is positioning itself more and more as a business partner for the cooperative farmers.
