Behavioral Dimensions of New Product Acceptance |
| |
Abstract: | This article explores key behavioral dimensions associated with the acceptance of aericultural innovations and new products by agribusiness operators. Variables affecting adoption behavior are presented in a "Hybrid Model" that combines both knowledge/awareness attributes and economic factors constraining buyers from accepting new products. Additionally, this conceptual framework considers buyers' criteria for evaluation of new products as critical in mediating the decision-making process. Understanding the behavioral dimensions of new product acceptance has vital implications for future agribusiness research and marketing management. |
