Explanation:
Agricultural production cooperative

Agricultural production cooperative

Ambalangoda Multi Purpose Co-Operative Society Limited

National Land Finance Co-Operative Society Ltd
http://www.fieldcon.net/jp/company.php?id=79716

ただし、productionを挿入せず、agricultural cooperativeとした名称の方が圧倒的に多いようではあります。
また、有限会社は company limited/co. ltd. などでしょうが、cooperativeというのが既に一つの企業形態なので、通常はそれとcompanyという名称を併用することはないようでもあります。

(xxNamexx) Agricultural Union Corporation


Explanation:
Here is an excerpt from a website I found about "agricultural union corporations" in Japan. (the website is posted below)


Agricultural union corporation
People in the Kinashi area launched an agricultural union corporation in fiscal 1974 ending in March 1975. An agricultural union corporation is a collective farming organization established under the agricultural cooperatives law and is aimed at promoting union members' interests by collectivizing their agricultural production. At least three farmers are required for forming such a union.

Kinashi's agricultural union corporation had 128 members, mainly bonsai growers, tree planters and gardeners, at the time of its establishment thanks to the bonsai boom at that time.

有限会社 = corporation
農業生産 = agricultural (production)
組合 = union
