SOIL CRC Benefit-Cost Analysis Tool
Benefit-cost analysis for farm-practice and soil-management trials.
The problem
Deciding whether an agricultural trial or soil-management intervention is worth its cost requires transparent economic appraisal under uncertainty.
Intended users
Researchers and partners evaluating agricultural production trials.
Inputs and outputs
Users supply trial assumptions and costs; the tool returns net present value, benefit-cost ratio, return on investment, and sensitivity analysis under alternative scenarios.
Methodological basis
Standard benefit-cost analysis with user-supplied assumptions and explicit sensitivity ranges.

Limitations
