Cost analysis in organic horticulture
In the analysis of production costs in organic horticulture, the economic management of horticultural farms is addressed, highlighting the importance of understanding the fundamental aspects of this sector. In many cases, these are small-scale farms that focus their marketing on direct sales and short circuits. This approach allows them to cut down on intermediaries and ensure that the added value of the sale is passed on to the producers themselves.
The online workshop aims to explore the economic viability of these farms, focusing on economic efficiency. Through practical examples and the use of tools such as spreadsheets or specialised software such as Hortagest, the aim is to provide participants with the necessary tools to evaluate and improve the profitability of their organic horticultural farms. This detailed analysis will not only benefit farmers in terms of financial management, but will also contribute to strengthening the sustainability and resilience of the organic horticulture sector.
