This report is the third official benchmarking survey of agricultural companies/cooperatives (later referred to as agribusinesses) by PricewaterhouseCoopers. It deals with the financial results of those agribusinesses that are mainly responsible for providing inputs and services to agricultural producers reported on in 2007.The first edition of this benchmarking survey two years ago comprised the results of 11 agribusinesses with a total turnover of R8.06 billion.
The responsibilities of Non- Executive Directors are ever increasing, given the rapid development in corporate governance standards, the increased risk inherent in these positions and the additional time commitment required. It is not surprising that there is a greater reluctance to take on a Non- Executive Director position.

- Salient features
- Preface
- Executive summary
- Use of this publication
