Abstract

We offer an integrative introduction, analysis, and commentary for the new agribusiness models (mainly for crop production) in Taiwan, an important economy in Asia. Taiwan’s economy has been relying heavily on agriculture-based business, even against the fact that its high-technology industries occupy major media explosion opportunities. We start with the introductory discussions of Taiwan’s agricultural backgrounds and development. Then we review and analyze the developing agribusiness models at macro and micro levels. Based on those analyses, we propose promising directions for future studies and agribusiness practices
