The very latest available figures are positive. They confirm that businesses in the north-east\u2019s agri-food sector are continuing to perform well. An analysis by Community Media Research for Cr\u00e9dit Agricole FriulAdria identifies innovation as a key factor in achieving positive performance. Three out of four companies \u2013 70 per cent \u2013 have implemented some form of innovation over the last three years. Only 29 per cent have stood still. And those that have failed to adapt have done so because they are small in size. In short, the figures demonstrate a correlation between small businesses that are unable to tap into the global markets crucial for growth and those that remain on the sidelines.<\/p>\n
