Economic Analisys of a Coffee-Banana System of a Family-Based Agriculture at the Atlantic Forest Zone, Brazil

Abstract: Agroforestry systems can reduce the risks of investing in just one crop. However, there are uncertainties like other agricultural and forestry activities. Therefore, there is the need for economic studies under conditions of economic risk of agroforestry systems. This work reports an analysis of the main components of costs and revenues of an agroforestry system with coffee and banana, as well as an analysis of its economic performance through indicators: net present value, equivalent period benefit (or cost),… Show more

“…According to Pezzopane, Souza, Rolim, and Gallo (2011) AFs promote shading for the coffee crop, that brings benefits such as protection against frost, excess radiation, winds and high temperatures, which contribute to increase the sustainability of the crop. For Alves, Silva, Oliveira Neto, Barrella, and Santos (2015), financial indicators showed positive values in agroforestry systems for coffee and bananas. Likewise, AS 2 has a production potential in the medium term for banana (Musa sp.)…”

“…Para establecer la escala valorativa, se estimó el porcentaje del VPN que cubre el total de los costos de producción, teniendo como criterio que un adecuado desempeño para estos agroecosistemas es del 30 %. La ecuación utilizada fue: (10) 2. Eficiencia: Indica la proporción entre el retorno y la inversión monetaria.…”
