Q. Some of the growers in my industry judge business success by comparing the price or profit per punnett or box, how do I compare my business to ones that grow different crops?
A. Comparing business's that way, is of little use besides having a general idea what the next cheque from the agent should be. To bench mark your business against others in the same or different industries you need to compare them by using some standard indicators. These indicators are often your most limiting factors such as land, water and equity. Another way to compare a business across industry is by calculating a Return On Investment (ROI). AgriGater can assist with all these calculations.
Q. What is the major differences between the RMCG Analysis and the Business Health Analysis?
A. You may find there are some subtle differences between these two analyses, because the former is more focussed on the profitability of farm assets. This means that leased land is not included at all and of farm income is not included in the farm Profit and Loss. The latter includes everything as a holistic business.
