Combining theory with practice, this book explores the key operational issues facing people wanting to
move into electronically enabled agribusiness. Combining theory with real life examples it outlines what exactly
"electronically- enabled" agribusiness is, why agribusiness wants to embrace the electronic era, and how it can go
about doing it. It discusses cutting edge innovations in business systems such as precision farming and livestock
electronic identification, risk management, supply and value chain management, knowledge management and
e-governance. It also reviews the underlying technological challenges, e-enabled business models and e-strategies,
management concepts and innovative education programmes.
Of interest to: Agribusiness, agriculture, resource economics, animal science, professional agribusiness managers
and government officers.
