Farm Economics & Accounting
Understand what each enterprise truly costs and earns.
A farm is a business, and every business needs its numbers. Agri360 pulls together the input costs, labour costs, and revenue recorded across the platform to calculate cost of production and gross margin for each crop and livestock enterprise — automatically, without a spreadsheet in sight. Financial events post to the Hitaji ERP general ledger through a configurable mapping, so the farm’s books are maintained in real double-entry accounting alongside the rest of the organisation.

Calculate cost of production automatically
Every input issued to a plot or livestock group, every labour hour allocated to a task, and every equipment cost attributed to a field operation rolls up into the cost of production for that enterprise. There is no need to re-enter costs at month end — they accumulate as events are recorded throughout the season.
See gross margin per enterprise
Gross margin is revenue minus direct costs, calculated per crop and livestock enterprise for the season. A single screen shows which enterprises are profitable, which are marginal, and which are running at a loss — the starting point for every agronomic and investment decision the following season.
Track overhead and shared costs
Some costs — farm rent, irrigation infrastructure, management salaries — are not attributable to a single crop. Agri360 records these as farm-level overheads and apportions them to enterprises by area, labour, or revenue share, so the enterprise P&L reflects a fully loaded picture.
Post financial events to the ledger
Produce sales, input purchases, and labour payments post journal entries to the Hitaji ERP accounting ledger through an asynchronous bridge with GL mappings you configure once. The farm’s books are maintained in real double-entry accounting, meaning financial statements are always current and auditable.
Review the season-level profit and loss
At season close, the farm P&L report consolidates all enterprise gross margins, deducts overhead, and arrives at net farm income for the period. The report is built from the same records used throughout the season, so there is nothing to prepare and nothing to reconcile.
Compare seasons and set targets
Historical season data feeds a year-on-year comparison so management can assess whether the farm is improving and where cost discipline or yield gains are having the most impact. Targets can be set per enterprise and tracked in-season, turning the economics module from a backward-looking report into a live management tool.
