In an era where the status quo is no longer sufficient, the book offers both an inspiration and a call to action.
The book highlights the crucial role of agribusiness especially in meeting the food requirements of a growing population amid the increasing scarcity of resources and climate change. It provides insights and lessons on the workings of agribusiness from various viewpoints: global, regional (ASEAN) and local. It highlights areas of weaknesses which need to be worked on, and strengths that can be capitalized on in order to level up agribusiness. It also draws learnings from ASEAN experiences.
