| | The Agribusiness Council |
| | The Agribusiness Council (ABC) is a private, nonprofit/tax-exempt, membership organization dedicated to strengthening U.S. agro-industrial competitiveness through programs which highlight international trade and development potentials as well as broad issues which encompass several individual agribusiness sectors and require a "food systems" approach. | | | As an agribusiness association, The Agribusiness Council provides access to a communications network encompassing small and medium-sized agribusiness companies, university/research institutions, other nonprofit organizations, as well as public sector agencies. | | | Initiated under Federal government auspices by President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1967, The Agribusiness Council was formed by a group of business, academic, foundation and government leaders in order to facilitate American agribusiness participation in agricultural trade and development programs with developing countries - and represent private-sector agriculture interests to Federal government decision-makers. |

| | National Food and Agribusiness Management Education Commission |
| | Food and agribusiness management degree programs must be poised to prepare undergraduate and graduate students for the challenges of an increasingly more global, technical, and competitive marketplace. | | | To better understand the most important changes in the food and agribusiness markets, and to begin to define what these changes mean for post-secondary education in food and agribusiness management, 24 senior leaders from industry and one senior leader from academe were asked to participate in an NFAMEC Industry Steering Committee. | | | As the next 15 years bring even more change, a comprehensive review of food and agribusiness management education programs in the U.S. is needed. |

| | The agribusiness sector therefore continues to play a crucial role in generating income and employment throughout the development process. | | | While the relative importance of agriculture tends to decline as a nation develops and per capita income rises, activities with significant income and employment multipliers such as food manufacturing, packaging, trading, and distribution tend to expand. | | | Given moderate income growth, food needs in developing countries could more than double. |

| | "After WWII, the military reinforced its grip on the national budget, university research was invaded by industry, and Abe Lincoln's land grant colleges became increasingly involved with agribusiness and the processed food industry. | | | These 'Cow Colleges" were established by an Act of Congress, in 1862, to teach agricultural and mechanical subjects, and to provide direct assistance to farmers. | | | Plainly, a government that placed economics above the dignity of its citizens could never hope to lead them to the end of the rainbow. |

| | NodeWorks - Encyclopedia: Agribusiness |
| | In agriculture, agribusiness is a generic term that refers to the various businesses involved in food production, including farming, seed supply, agrichemicals, farm machinery, wholesale and distribution, processing, marketing, and retail sales. | | | Among critics of large-scale, industrialized, vertically-integrated food production, the term agribusiness is used as a negative, synonymous with corporate farming. | | | Within the agriculture industry, agribusiness is widely used simply as the convenient contraction of agriculture and business, referring to the range of activities and disciplines encompassed by modern food production. |

| | Large agribusiness companies are manufacturing inputs (such as seed, fertilizer, and pesticides); acquiring farms; managing the transport, processing, and marketing of their products; and researching new ways to improve their products through processes such as genetic engineering. | | | A modern trend, however, has been toward vertical integration: one company being responsible for all, or most, phases in the cycle. | | | noun: agribusiness, agriculture, factory farm = a large-scale farming enterprise. |

| | The general Heideggerian idea of a value inherent in technology is instanced in the statement that the high technology of factory farming, or ``agribusiness,'' is inseparable from a bad way of relating to nature, understanding it and treating it simply as something to be processed in wholesale fashion for satisfaction of human appetites. | | | Heidegger's idea has been adopted mainly by dystopian theorists like his translator Michael Heim, who argues in The Metaphysics of Virtual Reality that the ``Boolean logic'' of the computer marks a ``new psychic framework'' that ``cuts off the peripheral vision of the mind's eye'' and generates infomania, as he indicates in the following passage. |
