Polyhouse farming’s poster boy Digaul Thomas in Mananthavady • He has made it big as a farmer, thanks largely to the 1,000 sq. metres of polyhouse cultivation he has developed over the last three years. • He was selected as the best farmer in the State by the government of Kerala in 2012, his polyhouse farm being a major factor in winning the award. It is possible even with the imperfect practices to make a living out of polyhouse farming • He said that he harvested 3.5 tonnes of bittergourds and three tonnes of vegetable cowpea from his polyhouse farm last season. At 33, he was an interior designer, but then turned to agriculture because he loved it so much, he said. Dr. Allan Thomas, Kerala Agricultural University 4/2/2016 17

- This is the first section of the Smallholder Productivity Unit which is part of the AAMP Training Materials. Exercises in this presentation are found in the excel spreadsheet entitled: Production Cost and Farm Productivity.xls
- The price of a good is set by supply and demand.
- An increase in supply lowers the price of the good. Here, an increase in output from Q0 to Q1 drops the price from it’s original position at P0 to P1. The quantity of maize supplied to the market depends upon farmers’ ability to keep production costs per hectare low.
- Farmers encounter a number of costs in the production and marketing of crops, costs that affect the amount of maize brought to the market and the eventual market price. Farm-level production costs include seed and fertilizer purchase, labor payments, repair and maintenance of machinery etc. Productivity among farmers is not constant, however, and the most efficient farmers maximize margins by keeping costs low. After the harvest, farmers face additional costs related to transport and marketing. The farther a farmer has to go to sell his/her goods, the higher the cost. Additionally, marketing costs in the form of handling charges, storage payments, profit margins and risk premium all increase the eventual price of the good. That being said, the focus of this presentation and the accompanying exercises is on farm level costs and productivity.
- Farm productivity refers to a farmer’s ability to produce a large yield (kg/hectare) at low cost. Productivity varies widely among smallholder farmers.
- Productivity varies partly because farmers differ in terms of skill level. A skilled farmer will make efficient use of inputs and will be able to follow advice. He/she will increase yields by planting and weeding on time, and by making appropriate use of technology.
- Lesser skilled farmers will incur higher costs and/or lower yields than a skilled farmer.
