Farm machinery for the “Mores Food Program”. Financial Economic Evaluation of an Investment Project

Abstract

The impulse to national production constitutes a central axis in the development of the Cuban economy, urged to achieve food sovereignty in the face of the worsening economic situation in the country. For its development, food production requires a boost in financing, technologies and inputs, which result in an increase in agricultural yields. The “Rubén Martínez Villena” Production Company of Various Crops and Livestock is undertaking an investment project for the acquisition of agricultural machinery to ensure the "More Food" program. The general objective of the investigation is to evaluate economically and financially the referred investment. The abstract logic, economic statistics and constructive calculation methods were used with their main procedures. In the work, the economic-financial evaluation is carried out with a projection of ten years, allowing to reach conclusions that are useful for decision-making by the entity's management.
