Case Studies in Agribusiness

The case studies in this series were written by Agribusiness students as their senior project experience in partial fulfillment of their degrees. The cases were researched and written to provide the students with an opportunity to see how the tools and skills learned in their program could be applied to an actual business situation and to serve as the basis for classroom discussion, and not to illustrate effective or ineffective management.
