Specialized farmers cooperatives of our country grow vigorously in recent years,while many problems have been highlighted. Contradiction between great money demandand lack of financing ability is the main bottleneck of restricting most cooperatives fromdevelopment. To conduct a research to cooperatives’ financing ability, and determine aperfect evaluation system for quantitative management of cooperatives’ financingactivities is of great significance to solve the widespread money problem of farmers’specialized co-operatives.This article analyzes the relevant basic theory and present situation of farmers’specialized cooperatives in financing activities, then finds out the main factors which canreflect the financing ability most and preliminarily builds a evaluation index system forspecialized farmers cooperatives’ financing ability. Taking Suning County in Cangzhou asan example, I have evaluated the cooperatives’ financing ability based on factor analysisand analytic hierarchy process(AHP), which enhances the integrity and accuracy of thearticle, as well as applying and verifying the index system.First, the research background and significance of this paper are explained, andrelevant research results both at home and abroad summarized. Review of the researchstatus and related theory lays a theoretical basis for later research on specialized farmerscooperatives’ financing ability.Secondly, the present situation of financing activities of specialized farmerscooperatives in our country has been analyzed in detail, mainly through the perspectivesof equity financing and debt financing.

Thedevelopment capacity, basic guarantee ability, internal system and external environmentare considered reflecting the key indicators of specialized farmers cooperatives’ financingability, and on this basis a index system framework is preliminary built.Finally, an instance of evaluation was given combining factor analysis with analytic hierarchy process, applying and validating the index system. And then suggestions areproposed on how to improve the financing ability of the farmers’ cooperatives according tothe study results above.
