  1. agri benchmark Beef and Sheep network • Ernesto Reyes • 06.10.2013 The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

  2. Content • What is agri benchmark network • Typical farm approach • Examples of analysis (Cow-calf, Beef, Sheep and Dairy) • Special projects • Linked to the Agenda The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

  3. Content • What is agri benchmark network The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

  4. agribenchmark– understandingagricultureworldwide • Our core competence:Production systems and their economics, drivers and perspectives • An expert network which started in 2002 >>> 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 The Agenda, MSP Ottawa

  7. agri benchmark data and services Hotline for specific questions on agri benchmark data and current developments in global agriculture • Specific projects, for example • how to increase labourproductivity 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

Typicalfarms – reasonstochoosetheconcept • resultscanbegeneralised (contraryto individual farmdata) • datasetsareconsistent and reflectingrealityofproductionsystems (contrarytosurveys and averages) • existingfarms and producerscan find themselves in thedataof a typicalfarm • ithasproventobeapplicable on a global scale • itiscost-effective • itisapplicable in countries withoutor limited statistics and accountingfigures The Agenda MSP, Ottawa

  18. Typicalfarms – threesourcesofdata • 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
