Abstract

Purpose - The paper examines the nexus between agricultural exports and the performance of agricultural firms in Malaysia. Design/methodology/approach - The dynamic linkage is tested by using system GMM models and the period ranges from 2002 to 2016. Findings - The results indicate that agricultural exports affect performance positively. However, agricultural raw materials have no significant impact on performance. Research limitations/implications - The agricultural exports in relation to sectoral performance needs to be considered in the future. Practical implications - The findings are important for policymakers to formulate policies that promote the agricultural sector. To put it differently, the policies may encourage investments in this sector. Also, the findings have substantial academic implications, bridging the gap between theory and empirical literature in the agricultural sector. Originality/value - This work highlights the agricultural exports and their impacts on a firm's performance.
