EastPack was a New Zealand cooperative providing post-harvest services for its kiwifruit and avocado growers. EastPack was New Zealand’s largest kiwifruit postharvest company with a packing capacity of more than 40 million trays1 of kiwifruit. It was forecasted that New Zealand kiwifruit volumes would increase by about 50% by 2025. While this was great news for the growers and Zespri – the marketer, it presented a challenge to post-harvest operators like EastPack since they would need to increase their capacity in order to cope with this growth. EastPack needed to develop strategies to manage the strong kiwifruit growth prospects, fund capacity expansion and ensure its growers remained at the heart of their growth.

While SWOT analysis is common in strategic management, the academic literature rarely incorporates responses and opinions held by those within the industry of interest. This article contributes to the agribusiness literature by identifying the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats for the tart cherry industry and surveying stakeholders to integrate their feedback into the analysis. Results indicate that producer views on the strengths, weakness, opportunities and threats of the tart cherry industry are heterogeneous. Results also suggest that growers perceive consumer interest towards nutritional/healthy and natural food products as the main opportunity for the tart cherry industry, while imports are considered the biggest threat.

The cultivation of alley cropping agricultural wood is an opportunity to comply with the greening requirements of the common agricultural policy (CAP; 2014-2020), but farmers are not permitted to display the whole alley cropping system (ACS) as ecological focus area (EFA) in Germany. They can display the agricultural wood stripes separately as EFA instead. The willingness of farmers is of key importance for a successful establishment, but, so far, the acceptance of this greening measure is extremely low. The aim of this paper is therefore to point out factors which have linkages to the acceptance of ACS as EFAs by conducting an online survey among German conventional farmers. The results of the regression analysis show that factors such as attitude towards agricultural wood, level of professional education, location and social environment affect the acceptance of ACS as EFA. To conclude, starting points that promote this type of greening measure are identified.
