Crop yield is not a comprehensive indicator of farm economic benefits, as operational costs, investment costs, market price and subsidies also have a significant influence on farm profitability.
“Crop yield, however, is not a comprehensive indicator of farm economic benefits, as operational costs, investment costs, market price and subsidies also have a significant influence on farm profitability (Jezeer et al., 2018(Jezeer et al., , 2017;;Sgroi et al., 2015).”
From Almond farm profitability under agroecological management in south-eastern Spain: Accounting for externalities and opportunity costs (2020) · cites this paper as Jezeer et al., 2017
Section 4.2.3 (page unavailable) questions using yield as a direct indicator of financial performance, and Sections 3.1 and 4.2.4 discuss product prices and production and establishment costs. Section 4.2.1 says a premium price could improve profitability, but prices were held identical in the comparison; the cited passages do not establish a significant price effect or address subsidies.

Similar results (organic management lower yields but higher NPV) were found for Italian olive orchards and for coffee and cocoa.
“Similar results were found for Italian olive orchards (Sgroi et al., 2015) and for coffee and cocoa (Jezeer et al., 2017).”
From Almond farm profitability under agroecological management in south-eastern Spain: Accounting for externalities and opportunity costs (2020) · cites this paper as Jezeer et al., 2017
Section 4.2.1 reports that shaded coffee and cocoa systems had yields averaging 26% lower than conventional systems, but higher net revenue and benefit–cost ratios. The paper evaluates shaded rather than uniformly organic management, and it does not report net present value (NPV); net revenue is not the same measure. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
