ABSTRACT

Effective decision-making is a critical talent of the successful food and agribusiness manager. Regardless of which commodities, services, products, and activities an agribusiness focuses on, the manager of that organization is faced daily with myriad decisions to be made at many different levels. Those decisions can range from where to order lunch for the staff meeting, to determining where the next production facility should be built. And it is the manager’s responsibility to make effective, timely and sound decisions for the ultimate good of the business.
