Abstract
The modern farm firm has a requirement for an effective business analysis system which integrates planning, budgeting and business control. The authors have developed such a system for intensive pig production. The basis of the system is a “skeleton” model which can be “coupled” with data from individual production units to provide a rapid analysis of the business at relatively low cost.Keywords
