IFCN Beef Team IFCN BeefInternational Farm Comparison Network Oklahoma Agricultural Leadership Program International Seminar February 20, 2004
World Population If we keep on accelerating ... 0 1000 2000 we should perhaps have a good navigation system. It shall provide information about the development of production systems productivity productioncosts in all important agricultural regions of the world. Everything under Control? The International Farm Comparison Network (IFCN) shall be part of a global navigation system for agriculture.
What is IFCN? TheInternational Farm Comparison Network is an international network of scientists, advisors and farmers. Objectives • to develop a sustainable information system • to create a better understanding of agriculture.
IFCN - fields of work A world wide long term project Production systems Production cost Impact of policies and changing markets Analysis of technological change Analysis of farm strategies
IFCN - operating branches Dairy Beef Arable crops Starting year 1997 1999 2001 Annual yes noyes Report 00/01/ 02/0302/03 No. countries / partners 02 26 11 14
Participating countries 2004 Contacts for further growth Spatial distribution of IFCN - February 2004 Share of IFCN-countries in - world milk production: 75% - world beef production: 50%
The Institutions in the IFCN 1 IFCN Center both located at FAL ground FAL: Scientific lead by public funded institution IFCN management by private companies 2 Research partners in the countries Universities Research centres funded by the government Beef institutions (Beef Board, Farmers Unions) 3 Customers Agribusiness companies Policy makers Beef institutions in the countries
IFCN-methods: the concept of typical farms What is a typical farm • Comparison typical vs average meal in a country Typical farms • Selected in terms of size, production system and contribution to the total production of the country / region • Virtual models based on existing farms • Full set of economic and physical data Three sources of data • Panel of farmers • Statistics available • Expert knowledge of the IFCN researcher + advisorsCrosschecking input data with economic results
Methods: TIPI-CAL TIPI-CAL is a simulation model [ Technology Impact and Policy Impact Calculations ] • Production and accounting model • Whole farm level and enterprise level • Excel-Spreadsheet • Pure simulation without algorithms or optimisation • Deterministic, recursive (presently becoming stochastic) • ‘Shareware’ for IFCN partners and clients • Basic model and additional modules for cost analysisand data management
Examples of IFCN research results 1 International Farm Comparisons Cost of beef and milk production world wide Cost component analysis for wheat DE - US 2 Baseline projections - 10 year forecasts 3 Farm strategy analysis DE- Milking robot vs. parlour systemConversion from conventional to organic farming 4 Policy analysis EU - Mid Term Review / Agenda 2000 EU - Abolish Milk quota - study incl. Farm adjustments 5 Other studies using the network Analysis in the beef/dairy chain- farmers - consumer milk prices

Where is the potential of net export increase? North America - Production increase - Increasing exports to developing countries - Increasing environm. problems (Spill-over pigs) China - Increasing production and consumption - No increase in net exports Ex-USSR - 1992 - 2002 almost 50 % decrease in production (from 7,5 down to 4 Mio. t) - Decrease consumption 1992 bis 2002: 40 % (from 26 down to 15 kg per head) - Huge investments in processing required - Lack of capital - Politically unstable, corruption
Where is the potential of net export increase? Australia - Land expansion limited - completed - Intensification possible at low feed costs, at present 25% of production New Zealand - Land expansion completed - Intensification limited - lack of feed Argentina- Land expansion limited - Intensification not realistic (crop is better alternative, image problem) - Medium investment requirement at high interest rates - Politically unstabel, corruption
Brazil - the future giant? • Doubled his beef production since mid 80s • 50-200 mill. ha potential land (partly rain forest)mainly in Mato Grosso, Rondônia and Pará • Presently low grassland intensity • Presently low level in cattle production(Ø 1.300 kg milk/cow/year, Ø DWG <400 g/day) • Favourable exchange rate with mainly use of domestic resources • ALCA/EU-MERCOSUR negotiations create potential market access + 7 % • Infrastructure (Transport, Processing) partly not available • Climatic/natural/environmental limits • Political stability? • Intensification sooner or later requiresimports of inputs + 317 %
