What is Agribusiness?

Agribusiness is everything from farm to fork.

 

Agribusiness represents all business-related activities involved in the production, finance, marketing and distribution of food and fiber. The agribusiness industry is responsible for 50% of the global economy and accounts for 20% of employment in the U.S. and as much as 90% worldwide. The academic discipline of agribusiness combines theory and method in finance, marketing and management to address global agricultural issues.
