Identifying and Understanding Various Agribusiness Companies

Next Generation Science / Common Core Standards Addressed! CCSS. ELA Literacy. RST. 11.12.2 Determine the central ideas or conclusions of a text; summarize complex concepts, processes, or information presented in a text by paraphrasing them in simpler but still accurate terms.

Bell Work / Student Learning Objectives Explain the size and importance of the agribusiness sector to the United States. Describe the agribusiness input sector and identify companies involved in it. Describe the agribusiness output sector and identify companies involved in it. Explain the agri-services sector and describe its two main segments.

Terms Agribusiness input sector Agribusiness output sector Agricultural cooperatives Check-off Exports International Trade Poverty Private agriservices Public agriservices Quality of life Trade associations

Interest Approach What do you think of when someone mentions the word “agriculture”? Did most of you say farming? Even though the number of farms in the United States is on the decline, farm size and the number of jobs associated with agriculture is on the rise.

The importance of Agribusiness Agriculture is the largest industry in the United States. It accounts for approximately 17 percent of the nation’s total economic output. It is also the nation’s largest employer, providing more than one out of every five jobs.

The importance of Agribusiness Agriculture contributes to quality of life in the United States Quality of life is having a good environment for living. Agriculture contributes to the quality of life in several ways.

How agriculture contributes to the quality of life. The United States is a strong nation because of agriculture. We have an abundance of food available at affordable prices. Because we spend less on food, more money is left over to spend on housing, clothes, and recreational activities.

How agriculture contributes to the quality of life. International trade is buying and selling goods by two or more nations. Goods sold to another country are exports. Agriculture strengthens our country’s well-being by providing jobs and by producing products that are exported.

How agriculture contributes to the quality of life. Poverty exists when people do not have enough money to buy food, clothing, and shelter. Because the agribusiness industry is advanced in the United States poverty is not as wide spread as it is in countries with less advanced agribusiness sectors.

Agribusiness Input Sector The agribusiness input sector is all of those businesses involved in providing supplies needed in the production of agricultural products. This sector plays a major role in the production of food and fiber.

Agribusiness Input Sector Agribusinesses in this sector supply production agriculture with the feed, seed, machinery, chemicals, and credit needed to operate. Examples of some of the larger companies involved in this sector are discussed in the slides to follow.

Companies in the input sector Deere and Company which manufactures machinery used by producers in raising and harvesting their crop would be an example. Purina Company produces feed that is used by animal producers.

Companies in the input sector Pioneer Seed is a leader in the production of seed used by producers involved in the production of plants. Monsanto Chemical Company is the nation’s largest supplier of chemicals used in agricultural production.

Companies in the input sector Phillips Petroleum Company produces the fuel and lubricants needed by producers to run their mechanized equipment. These products are especially important to agriculture because production agriculture requires more petroleum than any other single industry.

Agribusiness Output Sector The agribusiness output sector is made up of all the businesses that handle agricultural products from the location of their production to the final consumer. The USDA estimates that over 600,000 businesses, employing 20 million workers engaged in this sector.

Agribusiness Output Sector It is comprised of businesses that buy, store, grade, process, sell, insure, and advertise agricultural products. Examples of some of the larger companies involved in this sector are discussed will be discussed as follows.

Companies in the output sector Grocery merchandisers including Wal- Mart, Albertson’s, and independents. Transportation companies like Mesilla Valley Trucking and Union Pacific Railroad. Wholesalers including Archer Daniels Midland and Conagra. Forestry products merchandisers like Boise Cascade and Mead Paper

Agriservices Sector The agri-services sector of the agricultural industry is involved with researching new and better ways to produce and market food. Businesses in this sector are also concerned with protecting producers and consumers and providing custom-type services to all segments of agriculture.

Agriservices Sector The agriservices sector is made up of both public and private agencies. Traditionally, public agencies have played the dominant role in the agriservices area, but in recent years, private organizations are increasing the number and types of services they offer.

Public Agriservices Public agriservices provide special services at the local, state, and federal levels. The major areas of emphasis include research, education, communication, and regulation.

Examples of public agriservices United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Agricultural Research Service (ARS) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Department of the Interior Animal Plant Health Inspection Service NRCS

Private Agriservices Private agriservices are non-governmental entities that provide special services to the agriculture industry. The USDA estimates that over $1 billion is spent annually for private agriservices. This group employs in excess of 100,000 workers.

Private Agriservices The three major areas that comprise the private agriservices available to the agricultural industry are the following: Financial Services Trade Associations Agricultural Cooperatives

Financial Services Financial services provides money to all sectors of the agricultural industry. They are made up of banks, the Farm Credit System, insurance companies and other individual businesses. These types of businesses lend money for a variety of uses including the purchase of land and equipment, the acquisition of seed and fertilizer, and for the day-to-day capital needs of businesses.

Trade Associations Trade associations are made up of members who share an interest in a common enterprise. They serve agribusiness and promote the production and use of particular agricultural products. Examples of trade associations include the Illinois Corn Growers Association and the National Pork Producers Council.

Trade Associations These associations represent their membership in areas such as promotion, public relations, and legislative lobbying. They are commonly funded through membership dues or by a check-off, where a portion of a producer’s sales revenue goes directly toward funding the association.

Agricultural Cooperatives Agricultural cooperatives are businesses that are financed, owned, and controlled by the people who use them. Cooperatives are made up of people with common interests. There are over 4,200 cooperatives in existence. They provide production supplies and services, assist in marketing products, and aid in supplying electricity to rural areas.

Review / Summary How important is the agribusiness sector to the United States. Describe the agribusiness input sector and identify companies involved in it. Describe the agribusiness output sector and identify companies involved in it. What are the two main segments of the agriservices sector?
