(objectives)
The course aims to develop the ability to compute the technical-structural and economic characteristics of a farm, by framing and attributing an economic value to the elements of Working Capital, Fixed Capital (here determining the depreciation rates), Third Party Capital , and Net Capital (start and end of the administrative year). The student will learn to specify the value of the Income, of the Variable Costs, of the Added Value, of the Gross Income, of the Fixed Costs, of the Operating and Net Income, of the main Taxes and taxes applied in agriculture. In the same way, the student will learn to specify the labour availability and requirementa of the various farm activities. Therefore, the student will learn to evaluate farm profitability by estimating the income to capital, and the income to labour. The same applies to the equity structure assessment, with the relevance of the various types of third party capital and the various types of debt. Similarly, the student will learn to evaluate the financial conditions of the farm and the ability to generate liquidity to counteract obsolescence and senescence, as well as support the investment process. All these acquisitions will have to develop an ability to plan management and investment activities in agriculture, in particular, specifying the Business Plan of an investment project in a farm. In this regard, the student will learn to process the data of a real farm, specifying its balance sheet, the income statement and the main structural and technical characteristics. Based on those data, the student will learn to spacify the investment project for that farm, verifying its economic and financial sustainability based on ROI, ROE, ROS indicators, the capital ratios and the financial cash flow indicators. The student will also learn to evaluate a project based on the Cost-Benefit Analysis.

PRACTICAL EXERCISES The practical exercises involve the analysis of real farms, whose data are extracted, completely anonymous, from the Farm Accountancy Data Network (RICA). In particular, students are guided in defining the economic structure and financial position of those farms, and in assessing their economic and financial sustainability. Students are also guided in defining the technical and economic characteristics of an investment hypothesis (arboriculture, livestock, field crops, horticulture and greenhouses, products processing, agriturism, machinery and equipment, agricultural facilities), and in assessing the economic and financial implications of its implementation.
