AGROCONSULENZE – A NEW SERVICE

Agricultural Profitability Consultancy

Not just producing better. Earning more.

A farm does not live on yield per hectare alone.

Profitability depends on a combination of decisions involving production, costs, technology, organization, people, purchasing, quality, sales and marketing.

That is why Agroconsulenze offers a different approach from traditional agricultural consultancy.

We analyze the farm as a whole to identify where margins can be increased, costs reduced and profitability improved.

A new approach to agricultural consultancy

Traditional agronomic consultancy focuses mainly on technical decisions:

• which variety to use;

• how to irrigate;

• how to manage crop nutrition;

• how to manage the soil;

• how to improve production.

These decisions are fundamental.

But an even more important question is:

How much margin does each hectare of your farm actually generate?

And above all:

Where are you losing profitability?

Sometimes the solution is not simply to produce more.

It may be necessary to:

• reduce a cost;

• change a technology;

• modify a process;

• reorganize work;

• choose different suppliers;

• improve quality;

• reduce waste;

• change the production calendar;

• find new customers;

• sell more effectively;

• enter a different market.

This is where Agroconsulenze comes in.

What we analyze

1. Agronomy

We analyze agronomic decisions to understand whether they are actually contributing to profitability.

• varieties;

• planting density;

• soil and substrate management;

• irrigation;

• fertigation;

• nutrition;

• crop protection;

• quality management;

• yields;

• fruit size and product characteristics;

• harvesting.

The objective is not simply to increase production, but to find the most profitable balance between costs, quality, production and selling price.

2. Innovation and technology

Technology must generate an economic result.

We assess the potential of:

• automation;

• sensors and monitoring systems;

• artificial intelligence;

• precision agriculture;

• harvesting automation;

• irrigation and fertigation technologies;

• greenhouses and crop protection systems;

• agrivoltaics;

• new packaging solutions;

• post-harvest technologies.

We do not recommend a technology simply because it is innovative.

We evaluate whether it can actually improve the economic performance of the farm.

3. Cost reduction

We analyze the main costs of the farm to identify areas for potential improvement.

For example:

• labor;

• fertilizers;

• crop inputs;

• water;

• energy;

• irrigation;

• packaging;

• logistics;

• machinery;

• maintenance;

• purchasing;

• external services.

The objective is to identify costs that can be eliminated, reduced or transformed into more efficient investments.

4. Human resources and organization

In many agricultural businesses, a significant part of costs and inefficiencies comes from the organization of work.

We analyze:

• team organization;

• labor productivity;

• processing times;

• harvesting;

• handling and internal logistics;

• responsibilities;

• activity planning;

• equipment utilization;

• process automation.

Because often reducing the cost per unit produced is more important than simply reducing the number of employees.

5. Purchasing and suppliers

We also analyze the purchasing side of the business:

• suppliers;

• commercial terms;

• quantities;

• prices;

• contracts;

• technological alternatives;

• purchasing rationalization.

The objective is to understand the real cost of producing one kilogram of product and where opportunities for improvement exist.

6. Sales and marketing

Producing well does not necessarily mean selling well.

We analyze:

• customers;

• buyers;

• distributors;

• retailers and GDO;

• markets;

• sales channels;

• prices;

• commercial calendar;

• quality requirements of different markets;

• packaging;

• product positioning;

• opportunities for direct sales or new intermediaries.

The objective is to work not only on the cost of production, but also on the selling value of the product.

7. Margin analysis

This is the heart of the service.

We build an economic view of production through indicators such as:

• €/hectare

• €/kg

• production cost

• average selling price

• gross margin

• labor costs

• technology costs

• commercial costs

• final margin

This allows us to understand which decisions can have the greatest impact on profitability.

Our method

ANALYZE → IMPLEMENT → MEASURE

1. ANALYZE

We study the farm, its costs, production, organization and commercial activities.

2. IMPLEMENT

We identify areas where it is possible to:

increase revenues + reduce costs + improve efficiency.

3. MEASURE

We define economic and production KPIs to monitor whether the actions implemented are actually increasing profitability over time.

What makes us different

A traditional consultant may ask:

“How can we produce better?”

Agroconsulenze adds another question:

“How can we produce better and turn that improvement into higher margins and greater profit for the farm?”

Because higher yields do not automatically mean higher profitability.

A technology investment is not automatically worthwhile.

A lower cost is not always a real saving.

And selling more product does not necessarily mean earning more.

Every decision should also be evaluated from an economic and commercial perspective.

From agronomic consultancy to profitability consultancy

We don't just help you produce more. We help you earn more.

Agronomy, technology, costs, organization, people, sales and marketing: we analyze all the factors that determine the margin of your agricultural business.

Agricultural Profitability Consultancy

How much more could your farm earn?

The answer does not depend only on yield per hectare.

Agroconsulenze analyzes the entire value chain of the farm to identify concrete opportunities to improve margins: agronomic decisions, innovation, technology, costs, purchasing, work organization, human resources, quality, sales and marketing.

The objective is simple: to turn technical and business decisions into greater profitability.
