Strong farmers’ individualism limits their competitiveness. Smaller commercial agricultural producers find themselves at particular disadvantage. The sustainable agricultural paradigm requires farmers to receive adequate and regular income (which is independent of the crisis factors), and to preserve an environment and a biodiversity. However, Lithuanian farmers rarely take common actions in the market. The aim of article is to create an organizational system that allows different sizes of sea buckthorn growers’ farms to work together merging into cooperatives and producers’ organizations. There is suggested a merging system for different size buckthorn growers’ farms which allows unionize local, zonal and country cooperatives
