The present study attempts to assess the financial feasibility of layer farms of poultry birds in the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh, India. In total, 60 farms were considered for the study, with 20 each for small, medium and large size. A pretested questionnaire was used to collect data from poultry farmers. The Net Present Worth is highest for large farms followed by medium and small farms at both 12 and 16% discount rates, proving the economic viability of farms. The Benefit-Cost Ratio and farm size were positively related and the large farms were economically more viable. The internal rate of return is higher than that of the discount rate for all sizes of farms which implies that investment is feasible. Even though the returns are decreased by 10% (Case I) or costs increased by 10% (Case II), the small, medium and large poultry layer farms are economically feasible at both 12% and 16% discount rates as NPV is positive and BCR is greater than 1. But if the returns are decreased by 10% and Costs increased by 10% (Case III), the small farms become financially infeasible at both discount rates, whereas medium farms become financially infeasible at a 16% discount rate only. The large layer farms are economically feasible at both discount rates if the returns are decreased by 10% and Costs increased by 10% (Case III). Based on NPV, BCR and IRR, large layer farms were most profitable followed by medium and small layer farms. The benefits per bird were highest and cost of production was lowest in case of large farms. The study revealed that poultry layer farming is a profitable business in Chittoor district.

Season- and farm-wise productivity and mortality of Sonali chickens in 53 selected poultry farms from nine Upozillas of Rajshahi District during December 2018 and November 2019 were assessed. Results revealed that, on average, small farms produced 775, medium farms 1828 and large farms 3442 marketable live birds. Mortality was recorded in the following order: small farms > medium farms > large farms. Highest number of birds was produced in spring followed by winter, summer and rainy season, whereas the highest mortality was recorded in winter followed by rainy, summer and spring. Birds reared in smaller farms consumed greater amount of feed compared to those reared in larger farms. Consequently, the live weights, edible weights and edible ratios of the chickens differed significantly due to the farm size. Season-wise variations were significant for day-old chick price, gross return per bird and benefit-cost ratio. Farm-wise variations in the profitability components demonstrated that all the components of the large farms were significantly higher than those of the medium and small farms. With regard to the commercial poultry enterprise of the country, therefore, the present findings on Sonali chicken farming in Rajshahi District are quite encouraging from productivity, profitability and sustainability points of views.

Produksi minyak kayuputih dari Kepulauan Maluku dan Pulau Jawa saat ini masih jauh di bawah permintaan kayuputih dalam negeri. Ekstensifikasi perkebunan kayuputih skala kecil yang  dikelola oleh masyarakat dengan menggunakan benih unggul dapat menjadi solusi untuk meningkatakan produksi minyak kayuputih di Indonesia. Tulisan ini dimaksudkan untuk mengetahui tingkat kelayakan finansial dari usaha perkebunan kayuputih skala kecil dengan menggunakan data dari pilot project pengembangan industri kayuputih skala kecil di Kampung Rimbajaya, Distrik Biak Timur seluas 5 ha. Kelayakan finansial dilihat dari kriteria investasi yang umum digunakan yaitu net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), benefit-cost ratio (BCR) dan payback period. Hasil analisis finansial menunjukkan bahwa kebun kayuputih unggul skala kecil layak untuk diusahakan dengan NPV untuk jangka waktu 25 tahun pada discount rate 9,2% adalah sebesar Rp 757.171.972,00 (Rp 151.434.394,32 per hektar), IRR sebesar 72,74%, BCR sebesar 1,77 dan payback period setelah 2 tahun 3 bulan. Secara finansial perkebunan kayuputih yang menggunakan benih unggul lebih layak diusahakan dibandingkan dengan komoditas bambu, sengon, sawit dan kopi. Financial Analysis of a Small Scale Cajuput Plantation: A Case Study of A Pilot Project for A Farmer Group in Rimbajaya Village, East Biak DistrictAbstractProduction of cajuput oil from the Moluccas and Java Island is currently far below the domestic demand for the oil. Extensification of small-scale cajuput plantations managed by community using improved seeds is expected to increase cajuput oil production inIndonesia. This study investigates the financial feasibility of a 5 ha-cajuput plantation using data collected from a pilot project for a farmer group in Rimbajaya Village, East Biak District. Financial feasibility was assessed by calculating four investment criteria: netpresent value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), benefit-cost ratio (BCR) and payback period. The analysis showed that a small-scale cajuput plantation was financially feasible with NPV (25 years) at a 9.2% discount rate was IDR 687,583,363.00 (IDR 137,516,672.63 per hectare), IRR of 66.5%, BCR of 1.70 and payback period after 2 years and 3 months. Investation in a cajuput plantation planted with improved seeds is more feasible than that in bamboo, sengon, palm oil and coffee plantations.

Abstract Drip method of irrigation (DMI) has the potential to save substantial water and electrical energy as well as increase the productivity of crops. Studies conducted on different high value crops have confirmed the various benefits of DMI. However, not many studies have researched the income and resource impact of drip irrigation including its benefit–cost pattern using survey data in crops like groundnut, which is an important oilseed crop in India. In this paper, an attempt has been made to fill this gap by using survey data collected from a water-scarce district from Tamil Nadu State in India. The results show that DMI can save about 34% of cultivation cost, 36% of water and electrical energy and increase about 79% of productivity over the same crop cultivated under conventional flood method of irrigation. The drip adopters are also able to generate an additional farm business income of Rs 25,911/acre (1 USD = INR 74.92, 1 acre = 4,047 m2) over the non-drip adopters. The net present worth and benefit–cost ratio estimated using discounted cash flow technique shows that investment in drip irrigation is economically highly viable for groundnut cultivating farmers.

Drip method of irrigation (DMI) introduced relatively recently in India has proved to save sizeable water and augment productivity of crops. Studies conducted mostly on high-value fruit crops have confirmed the various benefits of DMI. However, not many studies have brought out the economic and resource impacts of drip irrigation including its benefit–cost pattern using survey data in crops like okra (ladies’ fingers) which is an important vegetable crop in India. In this article, we have made an attempt to fill this gap by using farm survey data collected from a water scarce district of Tamil Nadu state. We found from this study that DMI can reduce about 15 per cent of cultivation cost, save about 47 per cent of water resources and electrical energy, and augment about 49 per cent of productivity of okra over the same crop cultivated under conventional flood method of irrigation (FMI). Farmers cultivating okra under DMI are also able to generate an additional farm business income of ₹72,711/acre over the non-drip adopters. The net present worth and benefit-cost ratio estimated using different discount rates corroborate that investment in drip irrigation is economically highly viable for okra crop cultivating farmers.
