Near‐Term Economic Outlook: Agri‐Food
Business Leaders’ Perspectives
Vincent Amanor‐Boadu
September 2011
gri‐food and agribusiness companies have done well this year. Cargill reported a rise in profits of
35% to $2.69 billion in fiscal 2011.1 Archer Daniel Midlands (ADM) reported a modest 5% increase
in fiscal 2011 net earnings, from $1.93 billion to $2.04 billion.2 Monsanto reported a 77% increase in
profits in the third quarter of fiscal 2011, causing expected per share earnings to increase from $2.84 to
$2.88 in 2011 compared to 2010.3 General Mills saw a 17.5% increase in net income in fiscal 2011 over
fiscal 2010 while Tyson Foods reported an increase of 14.5% in the first nine months of fiscal 2011
compared to fiscal 2010.4 These increases in agri‐food and agribusiness companies’ net incomes have
come from modest volume increases and significant price increases. For example, Tyson Foods saw a
volume increase of about 2.1% across all its products compared to an 11.4% increase in prices in the first
months of 2011.
The U.S. farm sector is expected to have some stellar performance this year, similar to the agri‐food and
agribusiness companies. The Economic Research Service of the USDA forecasts a 19.8% increase in net
farm income (the entrepreneurial earnings of producers) to $94.7 billion in 2011 compared to 2010.5
Net cash incomes (i.e., income earned to settle expenses and debt) are forecast to increase by about 8%
over the same period while the net value added of agriculture to the U.S. economy in 2011 is forecast to
be the second‐highest in the past 35 years.
Agriculture and agri‐food sectors are not the only ones seeming to do well. Other industries, such as
financial services and basic metals, have seen net profit margin increases of 10.4% and 13.6%
respectively while that of consumer goods and industrial goods have increased by respectively 6.5% and
5.8%. Individual companies and industries are doing so well that U.S. companies are reputed to be
sitting on more than $2 trillion in cash. The top‐20 S&P companies account for 70% of this cash
reserve.6

Animal ID & Traceability
IMPACTS: MODELING
MARKET EFFECTS OF ANIMAL IDENTIFICATION …
The purpose of this study was to conduct a benefit‐cost analysis of the
United States National Animal Identification System (NAIS). The NAIS is a
voluntary federal animal identification system operated by the Animal
and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of the United States
Department of Agriculture (USDA). NAIS is designed primarily to protect
the health of the nation’s livestock and poultry to enhance animal health
and maintain market access. The three components of NAIS are: 1)
premises registration, 2) animal identification, and 3) animal movement
tracking. Objectives of this study included estimating benefits and costs
of adopting NAIS by the livestock and poultry industries as well as
determining how net benefits are likely to be allocated among industry
sectors, consumers, and government. The benefit‐cost analysis focuses
on impacts of NAIS adoption in the bovine, porcine, ovine, poultry, and
equine industries.

Abstract
Business development is crucial for sustained economic progress and individual well‐being.
This paper describes how to provide support for business development efforts in communities
in conflict environments or only recently emerged from conflict environments. It uses the
Cascade Approach® to provide a clear and practical framework for developing businesses that
are carefully and deliberately discovered by people who are passionate about them and are
capable of marshaling the requisite resources to transform ideas into exploitable value.
