Factors Affecting Agribusiness in Port Harcourt City and Obio/Akpor Local Government Areas in Rivers State, Nigeria

초록

The study examined the factors affecting agribusiness as well as determined whether inadequate human and technological capacities affect agribusiness in Port Harcourt City and Obio/Akpor Local Government Areas of Rivers State, Nigeria. Data were collected from 300 agribusiness firms in the two Local Government Areas. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, factor analysis, and multinomial logistics regression. The multinomial logistic regression result was within 5% significance level, meaning that inadequate human and technological capacities negatively affect agribusiness survival. To increase the income level of the agribusiness firms, on the one hand, the internal management of enterprises should be strengthened, and the collaboration and technical capabilities of staff should be improved. On the other hand, they should pay attention to scientific and technological innovation and use more advanced means to promote enterprise reform.
