ABSTRACT

The basics of human resource management are pretty straightforward-determine what jobs and tasks the agribusiness needs performed, find and hire good people, evaluate them periodically, and then compensate them appropriately. However, implementing this function in the firm is the challenge, and each step is important to the success of the company. Human resource (HR) management is much like production agriculturepart art and part science, requiring the right balance of a variety of resources, and the right conditions, to yield a bumper crop.
