      abstract = {E-commerce's value creation in agricultural and food  markets will only occur to the extent that e-commerce firms  exist throughout the supply chain. The problem is that  e-commerce firms throughout the agricultural and food  supply chain have faced a serious challenge in staying in  business. Many have been forced to exit the market, and  only a few have survived to develop into functional  web-based businesses. The objective of this research study  is to identify characteristics that are associated with  successful e-commerce firms throughout the agricultural and  food supply chain. Relevant e-commerce and agricultural  e-commerce literature suggests several characteristics that  influence the success for agricultural and food e-commerce  firms. A limited-dependent variable technique, logistic  regression, is used to relate websites' characteristics to  their probability of survival.},
