Abstract: | This paper explores fundamental issues that deserve attention from scholars interested in Agripreneurship. First, several theoretical issues and frameworks useful to further development of Agripreneurship are explored. Second, the important role of cluster theory is highlighted. Third, learning theory and Knowledge Management is shown to be core issues for Agripreneurship. The terms, entrepreneurship and agripreneurship are frequently used in the context of education and small business formation. Particular countries have preference for the use of the terms in specific circumstances. The purpose of this paper is to clearly set out promotion of agri export through entrepreneurship development and understanding of the issues where the terms are commonly used. It involves an analysis of the literature to identify similarities and distinctions particularly in areas of entrepreneurship and business start-ups. The findings indicate that through these concepts the country has developed agribusiness in a value added manner for export purposes and even now farmer is becoming real agripreneurs. With a view to promoting agricultural exports from the country and remunerative returns to the agripreneur community in a sustained manner, the concept of the Agri Export Zones (AEZ) was floated in sixty places in India for various agricultural produce. These zones have been set up for end to end development for export of specific products from a geographically contiguous area supported by agripreneur. |
