Course description
At an introductory level, the course examines strategic issues set in the context of food and fibre industries. Students carry out investigations framed around contemporary issues faced by agribusiness managers in firms & organizations providing inputs and services (finance, farm merchandise, technical services, plant & equipment & human resources) to agricultural, pastoral and horticultural producers. Each case study involves interviews with managers and other stakeholders. This is the first level of three courses that constitute the educational spine of the Agribusiness degree program.
