Pamcoba - Precision agriculture– Methodology for Cost Benefit Analysis
The Pamcoba project envisages the development and implementation of a comprehensive methodological approach that will facilitate the evaluation of adopting PA technologies, balancing expected initial investment, management costs and benefits. The methodology will support cost-benefit analysis related to PA and will embrace four sets of evaluation namely: (1) financial performance and risk (2) strategic impact, (3) effects on fields operations, (4) environmental impact and other social impacts. The four sets will be combined into a single Key Performance Index. The methodology will support a broad range of farm operations, covering arable crops, orchards, vineyards, field and field vegetables. The evaluation protocol will be applicable to all operations that have been reported to be implementable through PA equipment or solutions. As currently reported, PA (specifically VRA and CTF applications) apply to all on-farm operations from tillage to harvesting.
