The Internet's Impact on Agricultural Input Distribution Channels

Bill Barton

Review of Agricultural Economics, 2003, vol. 25, issue 1, 14-21

Abstract: Agricultural input distribution channels incorporate a number of complexities that make communication of prices and availability murky, and create inefficiencies in input markets. The Internet provides the potential for realizing significant efficiency gains in the agricultural inputs industry through the continued consolidation and vertical integration made possible by improving communications networks. Innovative firms have the opportunity to profit from the changes wrought and encouraged by the Internet.
