Economic effects of production scale, use of agricultural greenhouses, and integration of tropical aquaculture species when farming in a subtropical climate

The Key to the Sustainability and Conservation of Extractive Reserves in the Amazon

“…In addition, these activities should ensure a considerable reduction in deforestation, strengthen cultural and economic practices, diversify production methods, and equitably distribute benefits to local communities [109]. Productive integration provides resilience, ensures economic viability, presents productivity variations [110], builds and maintains fertility over time, increases the chances of preserving biodiversity, and boosts food production [111].…”

Economic and financial risks of commercial tilapia cage culture in a neotropical reservoir

“…Both found that the smallest farms and smallest productive volumes showed a higher probability of NPV <0 at 74%, while the largest farms with higher production volumes showed a 10% probability of occurrence. Dantas et al [ 42 ] assessed the economic effects of the scaled production of freshwater prawns ( Macrobrachium amazonicum ) and tambaqui ( Colossma macropomum ). They found better results for larger farms' financial feasibility indicators than smaller farms.…”
