The nursery sector in Assam is emerging as a significant component of the state’s horticultural economy, contributing to employment, greening initiatives, and rural entrepreneurship. However, the entrepreneurial behaviour of nursery owners varies widely depending on socio-economic traits, resource endowments, and market opportunities. This paper reviews existing literature on entrepreneurial behaviour, contextualises it within the plant nursery sector of Assam, and identifies gaps for further empirical research. The review highlights key behavioural dimensions such as innovativeness, risk-taking, proactiveness, achievement motivation, market orientation, and resource mobilisation, while situating them in the unique socio-economic and cultural milieu of Assam.
