To increase the production areas, and because of the lack of arable agricultural land in the coastal part of Croatia, karst terrains are increasingly being turned into and cultivation by melioration agricultural arable land for intensive farming. Cultivation and melioration of karst are financially demanding projects for adapting soil to be suitable for growing crops, such as cleaning and removal of overhead vegetation, leveling the terrain, scarifying, plowing, and grinding stones and rocks. Since the first step in preparation of karst terrain and the basic prerequisite for the successful raising of the newly planted olive trees represents the biggest outlay in investment costs, in this context the goal of this paper is to analyze and assess economic and financial feasibility of investments. A model calculation has identified investment and production costs and revenues that represent the input parameters for the economic cost-benefit analysis, sensitivity analysis of the investment and economic analysis of the measure of business success. The results of analysis of the investment indicate that investment to raise 25 hectares of olive trees on karst is economically and financially viable and effective, under the assumption of expected yields provided and marketing of olive oil.
Radi povećanja proizvodnih površina, u nedostatku obradivih poljoprivrednih površina u obalnom dijelu RH, sve više su se počeli krški tereni privoditi (melioracijom i kultivacijom) u poljoprivredna obradiva tla za intenzivne uzgoje. Kultivacija krša podrazumijeva financijski zahtjevne zahvate za pripremu tla pogodnog za uzgoj poljoprivrednih kultura, kao što su čišćenje i uklanjanje nadzemne vegetacije, niveliranje terena, ripanje ili pikamiranje, rigolanje, te mljevenje i sitnjenje kamena. S obzirom da je priprema krškog terena prvi korak i osnovni preduvjet za uspješnu realizaciju podizanja nasada maslina, te ujedno i financijski najveći izdatak u investicijskim troškovima, u tom kontekstu cilj rada je napraviti analizu ocjene ekonomske opravdanosti i financijske izvodljivosti ulaganja. Modelnom kalkulacijom utvrđeni investicijski i proizvodni troškovi, te prihodi predstavljali su ulazne parametre za financijski dio cost-benefit analize, analize osjetljivosti investicije, te ekonomsku analizu mjerila poslovne uspješnosti. Dobiveni rezultati analize investicije pokazuju da je investicija podizanja 25 ha maslinika na kršu ekonomski i financijski izvodljiva, te efikasna, uz uvjet ostvarivanja očekivanih uroda i trženja maslinovog ulja.
