Comprehensive Training on Cost, Profit and Loss Analysis in Agriculture

Abstract

The training was designed in response to the capacity assessment conducted with producers in September 2025, which identified business planning and marketing as one of the most critical needs. The training also highlights the importance of strengthening linkages among various actors, including aquaculture farmers, rice–fish farmers, vegetable growers, other crop producers, and business-oriented farmers representing five agricultural cooperatives. The training aimed to strengthen participants’ knowledge and practical skills in agricultural cost analysis by introducing essential financial concepts, tools, and methods. Specifically, it sought to build participants’ capacity to accurately assess production costs, analyze financial performance, and apply cost-analysis techniques to improve decision-making in agricultural production planning and implementation.
