Team 'agribusiness' supports farmers' organisations in increasing their market power. They often lack solid business plans and entrepreneurial skills. Agriterra offers services to these companies in order to improve this. Connections between cooperatives and other kinds of agribusinesses and the financial sector are made.

At Agriterra, the term 'agribusiness' means a company where the involved farmers have control either directly or indirectly. This control comes either because it is a membership organisation with farmers as members or because agricultural organisations hold the shares and participations.

Agribusinesses - usually cooperatives - lend their services to primary agriculture. They become clients of our team because they need knowledge, means or capacity to realize their ambitions and plans for growth. A strong, competitive market position is therefore the aim to which team agribusiness makes its contribution.

This contribution mainly consists of advice and technical aid in the field of entrepreneurship, business planning, financial management and day-to-day management. This way, companies become bankable: ripe for investment. A further step is that agribusiness advisers with Agriterra, working in the region, approach investors and banks in order to ensure the success of the investment plans.
