Richard, farmers' coops are legal if the country has legislation, such as the Wheat Board, Milk Marketing Board, etc. in Canada. The problem comes when another country's farmers feel that the farmers' coops are against GATT or some bilateral agreement between the countries. But if the world's gold producers got together and agreed to limit their production, what law would apply? Public international law wouldn't apply, and that is the only world law as such. Maybe if two producers were in one country, it could be looked on as a conspiracy to restrict trade within that country?
