Managers in all areas of the agri-food system must be competent, flexible, and informed. Principles of Agribusiness Management
provides the vital insights and tools necessary to achieve success in a
collaborative and interactive manner. The authors present the material
clearly with a step-by-step approach that focuses on strategic planning
and management. In conjunction with learning objectives and
end-of-chapter highlights and quizzes, each chapter features two case
studies that highlight the current trends and practices of agribusiness.
An exciting feature of the fifth edition includes three powerful
learning tools: Discussion Starters, Strengthen Your Skills, and Start
Your Business. Timely and provocative, these tools facilitate in-class
discussion, develop entrepreneurial skills, and explore key topics
affecting the agri-food system. Globalization, leadership,
competitiveness, technology, and planning are only some of the areas
that are examined within the context of the changing world of
agribusiness.
