Revenue
Business plan for x years Private ownership of land + ownership
of information + social responsibility +
susstainability has to be balanced!!!!!

No insurance without INFORMATION

No financing without insurance
No seeds/fertilizer/machines wo financing
Costs
No farming without money 2010 2015 2020 2025 2030 2035 2040 2045

All starts with INFORMATION

• Without insurance (index insurance) NO significant financing

• insurance needs data to back up their decisions/calculations
• (RE-insurance must be involved and backup partly by government, donors)
www.progis.com

• with businessplan and insurance (micro-)financing is possible

• risk is covered by insurance, partly paid by government
• pilot projects, e.g. together with local science partners
• then evaluation and second phase countrywide implementation

New energy from renewable directives from the EC, 2009/28/EC

• population growth = more food = more CO2 increase
•optimized agriculture and forestry = less CO2 + more CO2-sink
• (plan the optimum: grow trees, humification, fertilizer use, energy use etc.)

Progis ecology-solutions 7 steps for a countrywide solution
based on following steps:

(1): Define consortium: MoAF, NADS, Science/University, Bank/Insur.,Coops

(2): Define pilot region: with farmers, foresters, coops, industry, advisors,
(3): Define detailed workplan: + education + training + know-how transfer
(1) setup base maps and field mapping (2) setup expert-information + localize all tools,
(3) start farm-forest-advise and farm-forest-mgmt. with IT-tools (4) setup logistics incl.
servers & communication (5) setup precision farming/forestry (meteorology-, soil-, pest-
management , (6) setup risk- and environment management (7) verify and optimize

(4): Put pilot project/workplan into life: 24(12-36)) months and control

(5): Evaluate pilot projects results (farmer, advisor, …)

(6): Rollout stepwise (1-3) the workplan : throughout regions or the
whole country, setup a trustcentre including marketing tools for farmers, invite
producers implementing precision farming, link insurance and financing, ……
www.progis.com

(7): Implement further (or parallel ): forestry, environmental caretaking,

risk-management, community and utility mgmt., index insurance, microcredits, ….

Progis ecology-solutions VALUATION OF BENEFITS

ASSUMPTION
•Calculation, planning, documentation optimizes farm-forest-management - 10% costs
• Nutrient and CO2 balance and meteo integration lowers input costs - 10% costs
• and increase (quality-)growth +10%revenue
• Documentation and trust center opens new markets +10% revenue
• Logistics saves costs - 10% costs
• better advise saves costs and increases revenue - 10% costs
• +10% revenue
• Banks and insurance integration allow startup of business and saves risk neutral but nec.
• Precision farming / forestry and virtual farming allows cost reduction - 10% costs

• 1. ECONOMICAL BENEFITS - 50% costs

+30% revenue
• (at assumed costs of €200,--/ha= -€100,-- and €300,--/ha revenue = +€100,-- = total +€200,--/ha)
• (investment at country licence of 0,3-2,5/avg.0,5 €/ha + local advisory costs)

• 2. ECOLOGICAL + RISK-MINIMIZED BENEFITS: HIGH

• As most of the costs are linked to energy and CO²; reduction is equal to better CO² balance as
www.progis.com

well as other environmental and risk targets to be reached give additional benefits.
• There is an environmental caretaking benefit of maybe much more then 80% change

• 3. INCREASED VALUE OF THE LAND BENEFIT 80% change
