Abstract
What are the factors that drive business innovation activities in commercial agriculture, forestry, and fisheries businesses (agribusinesses) in South Africa? How, and when, do these agribusinesses benefit from innovation? Conversely, what are the barriers that constrain their innovation performance? What sources of information do agribusinesses draw on when they innovate? A sectoral innovation survey helps to answer these and other critical questions that agriculturalists, business leaders, industry groups, and government policy makers face.-
