The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

4 agri benchmark – understanding agriculture worldwide
Our core competence: Production systems and their economics, drivers and perspectives An expert network which started in >>> more than just data Global, non-profit, independent >>> credibility Standardised methods >>> global comparability The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

5 Why global farm-level benchmarking?
We are all directly or indirectly linked via markets and product flows Decision making is done by millions of producers every day It needs an approach in close cooperation with producers On global scale there is a lack of comparable farm data Collecting and comparing this data and information assists in Understanding agriculture worldwide − Know where a certain farm type is − Learn why a certain farm type is where it is − Conclude what can be changed to develop / adjust to changing framework conditions The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

6 Target groups and relevance
Address global challenges with global overview and systematic expertise locally Non-profit organisations Align future production through benchmarking and positioning Producers and their organisations Operate successfully through in-depth understanding of markets and customers (Agri)Businesses The Agenda, MSP Ottawa

7 agri benchmark data and services
Farm Economics and Production Systems Data Base Profitability and CoP of individual produce Profitability of farming systems What are key drivers of CoP? Sensitivity analysis for key cost elements Cost of individual operations (in crops) For all indicators: evolution over time Which regions / production systems are leading edge Hotline for specific questions on agri benchmark data and current developments in global agriculture Specific projects, for example how to increase labour productivity in rice? costs of forage production? Global and country-specific sector information and time series analysis of production, farm structures, prices and trade The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

8 Analysis and projects Comparative global analysis of
Productions systems Economics (cost of production, prices, profitability) Policy analysis (what-if) Farm strategy analysis (what-if) Emission analysis (+ environmental indicators) Close cooperation with producers and advisors The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

9 Unique features of agri benchmark
Production systems approach >>> more than financial data and reasons behind differences Cooperation with producers and advisors >>> get the story behind the data Global coverage >>> big players and emerging economies Using standardised methods world-wide >>> global comparability Works in countries without / with limited statistics and accounting >>> global comparability Expert knowledge >>> access local expertise and overcome language issues The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

15 Content What is agri benchmark network Typical farm approach
The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

16 Typical farms – the principle
Imagine you have a guest from a foreign country who is interested to see how wheatfarming is done in your country. You would want to show your guest a farm that is … located in an important wheat producing region, … using the common technology for wheat production, … running the prevailing crop rotation and production system, … having a not too small and not too big size, … using the prevailing combination of labour, land and capital. In other words, you want to show your guest a typical farm! The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

17 Typical farms – reasons to choose the concept
results can be generalised (contrary to individual farm data) data sets are consistent and reflecting reality of production systems (contrary to surveys and averages) existing farms and producers can find themselves in the data of a typical farm it has proven to be applicable on a global scale it is cost-effective it is applicable in countries without or limited statistics and accounting figures The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

18 Typical farms – three sources of data
Statistics available to determine > important regions > farm sizes and distribution Focus groups of producers and advisors to > define prevailing production systems > collect data in a standardised way Expertise of researchers + advisors + farmers > Production system knowledge > Explore adjustments to changes in frame work conditions (forward looking results) The Agenda MSP, Ottawa
