(2) An association may acquire, exchange, interpret and disseminate to its members, to other cooperative associations, and otherwise, past, present, and prospective crop, market, statistical, economic, and other similar information relating to the business of the association, either directly or through an agent created or selected by it or by other associations acting in conjunction with it. (3) An association may advise its members in respect to the adjustment of their current and prospective production of agricultural commodities and its relation to the prospective volume of consumption, selling prices and existing or potential surplus, to the end that every market may be served from the most convenient productive areas under a program of orderly marketing that will assure adequate supplies without undue enhancement of prices or the accumulation of any undue surplus.
