ABSTRACT
An agribusiness may be a fi rm with billions of dollars of sales that employs thousands of people, or it may be as small as an individual who is a part-time seed corn salesperson. Agribusinesses may engage in a variety of activities that are related to the production, processing, marketing, and distribution of food and fi ber products. Though the one-person or one-family agribusiness is not uncommon, most of the actual business volume in agribusiness is conducted by enterprises that employ hundreds or even thousands of people.
