description Technical, financial feasibility, andriskanalysis for a fattening buffalo grazing production system establishment, were evaluated. The project initiated with 10 buffaloes at 250 kg initial body-weight; after 12 months the animals’ body weight was 500 kg. Financial analysis was done using the capital budget methodology, which considers nominal cash flows, and the financial profitability indicators: internal rate of return (IRR), net present value (NPV), cost/benefit ratio (C/B), and investment recovery period (IRP). The sensibility analysis was carried out with the Hertz technique or multidimensional analysis; therefore,  operating cost per animal, daily weight gain, final weight, and animals produced per year were  used to get the IRR and NPV. On the other hand, daily weight gain, purchase and sale animal prices, and capital cost were used to determine the economic risk, through a Monte Carlo simulation technique also known as Statistics Test Methodology. As a result of the analyses, the IRR, NPV, and recovery  period were 10.9%, -¢356.556, and 8.4 years, respectively. These results make the exploitation non-viable, due to a lack of profitability and the poor cash generated. Besides, it was determined that daily weight gain per animal is the variable that influences the most the probability of gaining a positive NPV.

Se contó, con 10 animales con 250 kg de peso inicial y 500 kg a los 12 meses. La evaluación del sistema se basó en la metodología de presupuesto de capital, que considera flujos de caja nominales y aplica los indicadores de rentabilidad financiera: tasa interna de retorno (TIR), valor actual neto (VAN), relación costo/ beneficio (C/B), y período de recuperación de la inversión (PRI). El análisis de sensibilidad se realizó mediante la técnica de Hertz o de Análisis Multidimensional; para medir TIR y VAN se evaluó el costo operativo por animal, ganancia de peso diaria, peso final a la venta, y cantidad de animales producidos al año. La evaluación del riesgo se efectúo mediante una simulación de Monte Carlo o Método de Ensayos Estadísticos; se usó ganancia de peso, precio de compra y venta de los animales, y costo de capital. Se obtuvo una TIR de 10,9%, un VAN de -¢356.556, así como un período de recuperación de 8,4 años; lo cual hace no viable esta explotación, tanto por la falta de rentabilidad como por la mínima liquidez generada. La variable ganancia de peso diario, es la que presenta la influencia mayor sobre la probabilidad de obtener un VAN positivo.Universidad de Costa Rica2008-12-08info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticleArtículoTextartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agrocost/article/view/671910.15517/rac.v33i2.6719Agronomía Costarricense; Agronomía Costarricense: Vol. 33, Issue 2 (July-December)Agronomía Costarricense; Agronomía Costarricense: Vol. 33, Nº 2 (Julio-Diciembre)2215-22020377-942410.15517/rac.v33i2reponame:Portal de Revistas UCRinstname:Universidad de Costa Ricainstacron:UCRspahttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agrocost/article/view/6719/6407Derechos de autor 2016 Agronomía Costarricensehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0acceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-08-30T16:16:51Zoai:portal.ucr.ac.cr:article/6719Portal de revistashttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.ucr.ac.crhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaijorge.polanco@ucr.ac.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2025-08-13T10:33:21.286Portal de Revistas UCR - Universidad de Costa Ricafalse
