Abstract

The competitiveness of the South African agri-food and fibre complex depends upon a number of factors: technological, socio-political and economic. This paper attempts to identify and analyse such factors by using a framework of analysis proposed by Michael Porter (1990). Appropriate measures to increase competitiveness are proposed. These include: improved supply chain management, cost reduction, contractual pricing and the establishment of a clear "agribusiness development policy".
