The 12 agripreneurs and key informants interviewed have shared their insights and experiences in starting and developing agribusinesses in an effort to help other entrepreneurs efficiently transition into their respective fields. Advice includes building your network and seeking mentorship, being passionate about your business, finding your niche, starting small, educating oneself, teambuilding, taking risks, minding the budgets, identifying funding, and embracing ‘coopetition’ for the greater good. There is also advice specific to women and young entrepreneurs. Their guidance can assist budding entrepreneurs in successively reaching their full potential in terms of productivity, and the societal and environmental impacts of their enterprises.
