COST-EFFECTIVENESS EVALUATION OF INVESTMENT IN INTEGRATED APPLE PRODUCTION

Abstract

The authors present an economic evaluation and justification of the "expanding existing production of apples" on the example of integrated production family
farm. As a starting point assumption was stated that the farm wants to expand the existing production of integrated production, and that the economy has its own cold storage and basic resources for organic and integrated production. The authors have presented calculations of static and dynamic evaluation of the
project, along with economic performance indicators, based on which the owner of the farm can make a decision on the justification of the investment project. The planned production of apples is expected, alongside with growing the integrated production system in any way environmentally. Selected variety is Golden Delicious.
