So what is an Agribusiness associate you ask? Most commonly individuals who work in agribusiness are involved with the supply of agricultural inputs such as fertilizers, agri-chemicals, animal health products, farm machinery and seed supply; either working for a wholesaler, independent retailer or in the processing stage of agricultural goods. Agribusiness people are responsible for the marketing of farm products, warehousing of goods and management of the logistical supply chain of goods and services; starting from the processing of new products to the storage and warehousing of goods, right down to the transport of goods directly to the farmer. Agribusiness also relates to the field of rural real estate sales and rural development, as well as commodity trading.

The skills you will gain from this course will be ideal for those seeking progression within the Agricultural sector and are also perfect for those looking to get a competitive edge in their job applications.
