Abstract
Agribusiness networks considering the chain from production to market. this paper uses a geographic approach to explore the agribusiness networks in West Bengal, India. West Bengal's varied geography, which includes the Himalayas to the delta region and is known as the Gangetic area, shapes its farming practices and diverse crops. The paper analyzes this complex link between this spatial variation and agribusiness networks involving small-scale farmers, middlemen, and market environments. Value chain analysis shows the way in which agricultural products are produced by a location's weather and landform, processed, and distributed until they finally integrate into the market. This journey has varied obstacles, including geographic restrictions such as floods and difficult terrain, economic hurdles like market accessibility and fluctuating prices, and social hindrances that involve land property rights and workforce aspects. Further, the article discusses how the changing technology and the policy have affected the network and what is needed from this point as we seek sustainability and environmentalism with respect to climate change. This analysis plays a key role in analyzing the agricultural dynamics of West Bengal, which are essential for policymakers, agricultural specialists, and strategists of agribusiness. Finally, the conclusion will include recommendations for future studies, including an examination of how world market trends, digital technology, and approaches to sustainable development interact with the new agricultural capes. However, this article is aimed at adding new dimensions to the broad discussion of agricultural development in heterogeneous settings with reference to West Bengal as a case
