Abstract:
Relative performance of individual enterprises within each component of Crop-Cattle-Poultry Fish farming system was ascertained through gross margin analysis and the success of whole farm business was examined by applying residual income measures such as net farm income and management income. The results showed that gross margin per Taka of variable cost varied sufficiently among enterprises. Among the individual enterprises within the crop component, brinjal (summer) gave highest gross margin per Taka of variable cost. Among the components of the whole farm business, fish had the highest gross margin per Taka of variable cost. Net farm income was reasonably high and the system earned positive management income, indicating that the farms were economically viable even under all possible full cost considerations.
