AGRI BUSINESS MANUFACTURING

What is Agri Business Manufacturing?

Agri Business Manufacturing refers to companies that work in agriculture or manufacture farm inputs. Agribusiness includes everything from farm machinery to seed suppliers to agrichemicals. The term “agribusiness” is frequently used to distinguish large agricultural enterprises from small, independent farmers.

Foods, fuels, fibers, and raw materials are the four categories of agricultural crops that are transformed into products. Approximately 11 percent of the planet’s land is used for crop production, and nearly 26% is used for animal pastures.
